Cheating himself of some knee locking, handstacking, chicken winging fun..

second pitch

It is common to rap Spooky to get to the Sorcerer-Charlatan notch. We got our rope snagged in this perfect rope pinching horn just left of the top of the hand crack. Bad news was we had a stuck rope. Good news was we got to climb an awesome hand crack pitch to free it.

Featured face on second half of Pitch 2.

Short but powerful offwidth at the start of Pitch 2.

Nearing the top.

Sorcerer, Magician and the Charlatan.
