My partner on this trip had a good saying about walls: "Wall climbing is long periods of boredom interspersed with moments of terror."

For a flash slideshow click here:

Thanks all! Props to Daryl and Angus on the FA back in 77. The final roof is really nutz. I found myself spinning around endlessly in the dark by headlamp. With no rock to push off you end up being spun by the force of gravity, gear and rope tension. Must of looked like some sort of crazed disco ball gone wrong from the valley floor.
