Climbers on Headstone Rock (((2-29-2004)))

Super fun route with great finger and foot holds if you look for them.

We had just climbed S/W Corner and I was setting up a rappel/top-rope for some friends on Cryptic. This was a great climb. Becareful rappelling down, as the natural direction of the rappel is right off the rock (open air). My feet slipped off the rock on the way down and I took a 30 ft swing... (This photo was taken by my friend Harry, not me).

Rappel anchors for getting down off Headstone (over Cryptic). Keep your feel or you will swing out over the north face.

Movement on Cryptic

Just because.

If you are not a big fan of barn-dooring while repelling, would recommend stepping off the lip close to the anchor. A misstep near the fourth bolt or later can give you a proper spook and swing.
