Climber on Werk Supp.

P2: laying back towards the crux (but look for the solid right hand jam just above!).

Love this route! Not too offwidth!

Back in the day, circa 1980.

A stellar route.

2nd pitch.

Joanne Robertson chasing the chipmunk up Werk Supp.

Working the crux - awkward on an otherwise straightforward route. I definitely recommend the route, but leave your pack on the ground!

More of the route. Sewing it up.

This, guys, is BA! "Did we just become best friends!?" Here's a shot of his last sequence up Werk Supp! Soo good!

Adam closing in on the finish! This BA led me up this the first time! Thankful for a great partner!

Adam about to make the crux move out of the cubby!

Bottom of the ninth, first pitch.
