You lads and lasses always nail these things so fast but this one might be a tad trickier.

Who is this?

Where (specifically) is this route found?

Ken and Kevin,

The only thing my source says is different is the name of the route; in the magazine I scanned from it is listed as "Killing Yourself to Live. 5.12a"

Did it get renamed? Is the magazine wrong?

They claim "Keeper of the Flame" is to the left.

I think that is from the San Fransisco based photographer/climber who has the same AWESOME name as me.....lucky guy;......(But we ALL know there is only one REAL Todd Gordon;...the Mayor , and his army of Gordobots......all others are just fandangos, periwinkle pated phonies.......)....great photo, by the way;.....but just behave yourself;...don't want any confusion as to which Todd Gordon did what, who, and where.........
