Snapped this shot of gal from SLC leading Brinton's Crack during A Burr's visit recently. Is it just me.... she looks way cool on this... must be the "from out west" factor.

Going for that last hand jam

Getting to the first crack

Brinton's Buttress right side. There's lots of ways to get from the ground to where the meaty part of these routes begin. For example, to get to Brinton's Crack, one book says scramble 20 ft up slab and another says climb left facing corner.
