Some fine Team memorabilia long kept in the dark corners of the orifice. Some believe this pre-dates the dead sea scrolls.

Yours truly at the redpoint crux. This is one of the best sport climbs I have ever done!

Mikie Elias just out of the Orifice and into the crux.
Never complains, not worried about falling, not a good belayer. For the record one of the lady climbers put this up to put smiles on everyones face.
It's a looong way down.
Vince in a 5.13 that has seen no red-points since EFR got the first ascent. But we know, the place isn't really all that great, chossy rock, no views, etc...<br> In the shade: hangdogging my way up Hard day at the Orifice.<br> Photo by Maite Guardiola.
The Hard Day king swing... at night!<br> Smaller than the Orifice Politics swing, but fun nonetheless.<br> Lower off anchors then climb up and clip into the rope so that your waist is at the second chain. Take in the slack, then let go!
EFR just after the Orifice. It is July and 97 degrees in Tucson but it is cool enough to warrant a wool hat. Too bad there is no climbing in Tucson in the summer.
Matt Birch lowering off of Hard Day at the Orifice. It is 35 feet out from the start of the 70 ft. pitch. The Ravens are in the background.
Yours truly at the redpoint crux. This is one of the best sport climbs I have ever done!
