Devan taking a morning stroll on CCC. He totally hiked it.

Got a new camera with effects. CCC is steeeep!!!

Chuck on the first pitch.

Athlete's Feat and Country Club Crack.

One of many great moves on CCC.

Bernard right where the crack goes from 5.9 to 5.10 in difficulty - below the roof.

Crankin' the crux of CCC years ago when the graffiti was still on the first pitch.

This is how to clip the first bolt when you are not tall enough.

Beta alert - this is how you lob off the crux when you grab the sloper instead of the good hold.

Country Club Crack, showing all but the start of the route.

Lew leading the first pitch.

Bill Wright at the crux. The rope is above him because he climbed up to place a piece and then downclimbed to the knee-hook rest.

Bernard approaching the roof.

A photo stitch of the entire route. The line follows the black streaks and left-arcing crack.

Bernard Vachon at the crux moves. Bill Wright is belaying.

This shows the bottom of the route and the crux moves. The small, dark flake that is about 2/3's the way up the photo and in the middle is the "thank god" hold that marks the end of the crux. The bottom of the crack can be seen at the top center of the photo.

Bill Wright trying to rest before turning the roof.

Kevin giving it a try. His third day of trying.

Pulling the roof on the second pitch.

The crux!

Alex gettin' greasy on the second pitch.

Fun crack climbing ahead.

Pulling the funny move above the roof.

Here comes Ross.
