I like Stoppers. (: And a few more Cams....(: I don't think we took all those stoppers and left a few draws. The Two Cam hooks we brought probably replaced that Hammer and pins in your Picture. I took this pic before we started up not after. We had a few arguments. Things were added, and then taken away, and then added again.

Great shots. Reminds me why I liked walls so much. Sam, those photos of South Seas/P.O are great as well. Reallly makes me wish we had done the South Seas start. That shot of The Bering Straights remind me of my partner, who back cleaned too aggressively and then pulled a piece and ended up going for 40 or 50. I had the mellow, first pitch of the day thing going, belaying from the portaledge, lying on my back and then, bam! Good times...

A few more from the dark side of the Glass: circleheads in the mist
Crawling inside the Slot of Delight on the Scott Fischer route, somewhere around '98 I think my aiders are stuck
The Waste Ledge on Invisible Airwaves, home to more than one good time. This place does not suck
Strung out on bat hooks, I asked my partner: If this pulls, am I going into the tree tops? He casually responds, "nah... you're going way past the tree tops" bomber

Batguano "Naw, you're gonna go way past the tree tops" made me LOL! I am so gonna use variation of that in the future! Awesome thread here guys, keep it up. I'm on my way to Baja to Kiteboard for a few months so my participation may wane a bit.

From the southeastern bigwall collection. Brain dead My proudest placement ever, from the second pitch of Brain Dead on the North Face of Looking Glass. After taking a 40 foot factor two fall, zippering the pitch, I broke the cable on one rurp and ripped the other one in an equalized nest. After collecting myself, I didn't have anything to replace the cable with. So I stuck a small rivet hanger through the eye, clipped a carabiner to one side, and equalized the other side to a shitty no 1 head. Clipped it as pro! Creatures of waste Traversing from Creatures of Waste into the free climbing finish of Wranglin Hogs and Horses.
Glass menagerie Steepness when linking pitch on the Glass Menagerie
Brain dead2 My friends took this while climbing Creatures of Waste. I'm jugging up to the top of the second pitch of Brain Dead. It's steep!!! That rope hangs about 60 feet from the base of the wall.

Spaceshot was early in my wall climbing binge. We had our hands full and didn't quite manage to top out as expected. So, we just decided to hunker down for the night. I believe this was March of 1998. classic
"sleeping"
The park was a bit of a mess at this point in time because of the construction of the new visitor's center. I believe they were having some security issues with the old facility. Prepare to be boarrrrrded!
