This is a photo that Paul Muehl had taken and produced into a postcard for his climbing friends. For several years in the late 1970's to the early 1980's we had a group of friends always show up for the second week of August and we all climbed and climbed and climbed. One day we would all go to the Ten Pins and do them all. This is a photo of someone on every summit. This Climb-a-thon was August 1979

From the road look for this formation on your left just as you're rounding the last switchback down to the cathedral spires. That's the formation
