Unaweep?

For nut's needle photo, I'm guessing Inner Sanctum...

Unaweep is nearby, but this joint is MUCH bigger... This is pitch 11 if I remember correctly...

Eastman is onto to something... Another hint; A 'sister' route of perhaps the most famous long and difficult free climb in Yosemite...

Sorry for slacking, I fell off this thread for a while

Nutjob's shot is The Center route of Geek Towers.

That is correct :)

Scuffy, if you were asking about that stuff around the climber, it's the stickpile/bush that he just climbed through. This pitch might be my all-time favorite pitch, even with (or maybe because of) the full submersion into pulpy slimy yellow algae to find handjams at the start. The wide open chimney moves at the top are wild with incomparable views!

I believe Greg B's is the classic Walker Spur on Mescalito.
Yep! You're up - post a photo!

I think this is the most posts any of my threads have ever gotten.

I feel special eventhough I can't name any of the damn routes that have been posted. Even 1 that I climbed.

Prod, you should feel even more special that you didn't have to mention PRS (politics/religion/sex) to get there!

That one looks like the upper section of P1 of Etude.

The lower one is Rico Miledi on something in Josh...

edit: I think I'm wrong about that being etude, but that sure does look like Rico...

Definitely not Etude. The crack on Etude is a bit more rounded on the edges, and the stance after the crux is to the right of the crack.

That does look like Rico as well. But no idea what the climb is. Looks pretty cool though.

Friend,

Y-Crack on Tahquitz? I just can't seem to place the granite splitter. I know the climber on that crack at RR, but not the route.
