Doing laps on Bishop Crack. Notice that you can belay from the ground if you have 2 ropes, and you'll pass the knot when the follower is securely in the wide slot. Having 2 ropes is also nice for a double rope rappel from the top anchor.
Looking down the wide section.

Proof that the crack contracts and expands dependent on temperature!
