Ben on the other side of the hole you have to shimmy through near the summit.<br> <br> It's a tighter squeeze than it looks in this photo!
Trying to sling a horn on the crux pitch so I don't have to do the mantel. (it didn't work i had to mantel) (Photo taken by either Amber M. or Matt P.)
Pitch one of Brer Rabbit.<br> <br> I always find the first pitch to be a rude wake up call when I climb in the Fishers. This was no exception.<br>
Bill Grasse getting started on Pitch Two.<br> <br> Looks just like an IC splitter doesn't it?<br> <br>

Pitch 4 bivy "cave"

A panoramic shot of Bill giving a belay just before the "jump across" on the ridge of Cottontail. <br> <br> The jump isn't that bad but you wouldn't want to blow it!
starting the traverse pitch. I had to protect myself to mantle this in a lower out sort of way to avoid a bad big swing. Photo By Matt P./Amber M.<br>
