@mike m- That wind yer ropes around the top to get off of the Pin Point sounds awful! I've always down-climbed it. Probably not much better!

Yes Cobra fell over, there were threads with photos here. Most precarious spire climbed may have been by the last person to tick the cobra. I wonder what the shortest time is between an ascent of a spire and it falling down? Days, hours?

Tony barns guided the Gendarm the day before it fell. Our Climb The Cleaver was not a spire but the roof fell either the night or next day after we did the 2nd ascent...... before after

... the roof fell either the night or next day after we did the 2nd ascent. Probably cuz of that bolt right next to the perfectly place-able crack.
The feature had to commit hari kari, or be eternally insulted by his peers.

Possibly not the most precarious spire ever climbed, but for sure it's got the look...

does anyone know about this one on the ridge between McHenrys and Chiefs Head in RNMP. Hard to see in the picture but it is fairly crooked.
Marlow that looks pretty precarious with bonus points for exposure factor.
