The shadow of the precariously balanced Friar pinnacle. For a sense of scale, the shadows of two climbers are visible on the ledge to the left of the huge block.

I'm rappelling the route, but when leading you should go up the right arete (not straight up the face or traversing off to the left).

The Friar pinnacle; if you're on the summit and it feels like it's swaying, that's probably just your imagination.
The second pitch of the Friar.
