In the Womb!
Jeep Gaskin on first free ascent of the Womb, 1936, during the Depression and way, way, way before Bobby Rotert, Tom McMillan and Diff Richie did their free ascent; Crazy Joe Myers belaying. Notice Joe is barefooted because his EBs hurt so badly. Jeep's wearing EBs, the Cruel Shoes. I'd like to replace this photo on this website with a cleaned up version Ken Cangi so graciously provided. Mine's too blue; <br> <br> - Grover

Atop the dreamy lie-back finger crack
From the ground up
Corey following the peerless 3rd pitch finger crack
Topping out 2nd pitch.
Starting the 5.9+ crack
Nearing the spicy crux of pitch 2
At the top!
Reaching the dynamic corner
In the Womb!
