Pano shot of the West Side Columns of the Lower Gorge as seen from the base of Off Tempo on the east side. Furthest left is the Morning Star Wall; furthest right is the Wildfire Wall (Pure Palm route, 11a, is the nicely chalked up stem box on right). Catwalk Cliff is a wide swath of columns in the center. Photo taken on a particularly snowy December weekend.
