Beautiful sunset top-out on Moby Grape

8/2/15 The 2nd of the lowest party tackles the "Triangular Roof". Your submitter was one of the first climbers, if not the first, to climb this feature after the rockfall that changed "Conn Course". [Photo taken from Boise Rock]

8/2/15 A crowded day on Moby Grape: 10 of the 12 climbers on the climb that day. The other two (of the 12) are lower. (see Finger of Fate telephoto) The "middle two" would exit up the left-facing dihedral (Kurt's Corner?) in the upper left of the photo. [Photo taken from Boise Rock]

On the upper slabs.

Reppy's crack in all its glory, such a fun pitch.

Steve Arsenault leading Reppy's Crack, probably in the late 1960's or early 1970's, maybe even before there was a "Moby Grape", when it was an alternate start to "Conn Course" (from 8mm movie film)

Moby Grape "KEG Party"<br>

The was my first time up moby grape and i took a variation (oops) to get to the roof on pitch 3... the part im on here felt about cannon 5.9 or 9+ but was very fun... the moderate way is to the left...

For some reason the highway snaking through the notch always catches my eye.

Reppy's crack 7/3/2010. If this is you, contact me for more photos.

Pulling the finger, so to speak... corey hebert took the photo...

Leaving the belay ledge at the top of the second pitch and approaching the "awkward" roof. The route continues up through the prominent right facing dihedral center left in the picture and the "finger of fate" can be seen just beyond and a tad to the left of the corner.

Mike Thompson pulling the roof move... you can jam it or lay it back but few people can make it look good...

The view of MG from Vertigo. 7 out of the 12 climbers on MG are in view.

Forgot my helmet. No the greatest. We were first on the route so at least we had that going for us. Even for a well traveled route there is a fair amount of loose rock.

Yeah, it's solid. The Finger of Fate. Photo by Ron Long.

Tim styling it.

Roof crux.

Mike happy to be jamming on Reppy's Crack...

The classic Reppy's crack butt shot... what a nice pitch though...
