Sharon Vinick on the steep crack on P1. Numerous face holds make the climbing easy and fun.

Birdland, pitch 1 variations. The first pitch as listed in the Brock guidebook follows the leftmost crack system (yellow dots). An alternate start follows a wider crack to the right (red dots). Both variations are about the same difficulty.

Selfies are a good way to avoid butt shots, right?

Having a great time on Birdland on Christmas Day 2006.

Looking down from near the top

Birdland awash in climbers on March 23rd. Fun route, but very crowded -- even on a weekday!
