Someone's got to post a video of someone leading this thing. Seriously. So amazing.

That first pic of Pamela looks like she's using her forehead for upward progress. Savage work Jay, and all others who have wriggled up that beast.

Always a classic!...as one project went down last week, this lifetimer moved up 1 notch...the 'woo has always seemed "just out of reach" on the way to rifle with no +++BCUs in the car

"...it was certainly the most physically demanding offwidth I have ever climbed.”
Unlike those cerebral technical touchy-feely OWs.
Awesome climb and story.

Now that is climbing literature. Awesome! What a capstone moment.
And the photos of Shanti are incredible.

If when/ we meet in the 'Woo, Jay, you have permission to bring me to her and get my Wyde azz kicked (by Lucille)--3 solid tries through.

She's a good motivator on climbing routes like the 'Cille for me--I'd take notes and pointers:-)

Proud Jaybro!
And really evocative writing. Hard to get across the feeling of a position where it takes 80% full effort just to maintain, just to keep from falling out. Then you gotta move, and half an inch progress can feel like major victory.
Interesting to compare your description of subtle features in that bombay, against the photos where it's way too easy for the eye to just sweep on by.
Thanks to your description I finally went to check out widefetish. Got lost there for an hour, maybe two. Pamela's photos are mighty impressive! Yours too!
I used to call myself an OW climber, but this is pretty humbling...

The corporate IT policy of this soul-sucking cubicle hell of way to make a living won't allow me to point my browser at anything with the word "fetish" in it. Drolling at the porn in widefetish is not in the cards for me today. Suck.
