Nickie Kelly at the crux. Her right foot is smeared, and it's a long reach to insecure handholds.

The sky belies the conditions - cold! This is before the first roof.

The Tower. The crux is at the fourth bolt, with poor footholds and a long reach to insecure handholds. This may be 5.9 if you're tall, but it's 10a or harder if you're short.<br> <br> A second crux is stepping right into the V-corner at the eighth bolt.
