The chockstone that once lived atop the second pitch on the Center Route. Now it serves as the base of a cairn. <br> Thank you, Darkness.

Greg from Fort Collins stylin the second pitch.

Yes, that is a camo hat. At least he has good form. Nearing the end of pitch 2.

Looking really happy to be on one of the best cracks in Colorado. Until the avian feces belay, of course.

Jeff Choens following the airy 3rd pitch variation...good stuff.
