BETA PHOTO: Greg's Problem (5.11+)


The Climb 

This is the obvious wide offwidth crack located on the roadside boulder that houses John's Crack to the left, and Manuel's Horror on the opposite side of the rock. Very difficult start.

Back in the '70s, we knew this as Cricket's Chimney. Cricket, was a reference to Tom Gibson's younger brother who was so skinny that he could chimney the thing.

I have no idea whether I did the FA of this or not, although I can't remember ever not being able to do it.
