Me (looking malnourished) at 15 years old and probably 125 pounds, circa 1978 at the top of Hawk. And trying to look like my hero Henry Barber with the hat.

pitch 2
Hawk (5.4). With smart placements and long runners, the first two "guidebook" pitches are easily linked - preferable since the shady belay treed atop p. 1 were wiped out in 2008 rockfall. <br>
1st & 2nd Pitch, waiting for the party of 5 in front of us..<br> <br> You can see about 4 people standing on the roomy ledge on top of the first pitch, while their leader starts the second pitch (I believe he's a bit too high in this photo, he should be traversing more to the right). You can see the obvious vertical crack of the first pitch, on the left.
