I'd like to see a few more photos of the crux section; preferably from a different angle. Any close-ups of the gear in the crack would be helpful too. Perhaps you shot it in video mode on your digital camera; now that would be rad!

Yeah! It's so good we are making a special trip up there to climb it again and do a video documentary.

Now if you could get Asia Carrera to "do" Asia Carrera I think we'd need streaming video.

The approach to this quality route is a perfect warmup. One or two small brass pieces (HB #3) were useful down low. If this were 20' longer it would be a classic!
