Nice pic of Cakewalk. This guy was a Vet dermatologist. Can you believe it?

One way of doing the crux if you're lacking in reach! Took a lot of safe falls figuring this one out.

Tony Bubb starts up the 'Cakewalk' (5.9) which is easy to here, before the crux. Photo by Chris Parks, 12/24/2003.

Great shot of the route.

Photo cred to Chris, thanks for the capture!

Very nice climbing on cakewalk.

I found the crux to be up high, not where I am right now.
