The crux section of the downclimb, west face of the Fist/Hippo Head (coincides w the rappel line). Lower oneself from bomber jugs onto some inobvious foot holds, locking off on a solid crimp w/ R hand, and stepping down to larger footholds. Piece o' cake!

Looking north from the summit of The Fist. All numbered Flatirons are visible in this photo except for the Fifth. The close crag in the foreground is Schmoe's Nose.
