If it was so heinous, why aren't you showing me some compassion instead of
laughing?
Just kidding, I don't, and didn't, think it was anything to complain about
or avoid.
There was just one section about two feet long where I went very very
slowly, because I didn't want to thrash around.
One nice thing about the Good, the Bad and the Ugly is that you don't need
any really big gear.
klk, Kamikaze is at the Beak, or Beak Rock, or something. By Modern Warfare
and Throbbing Gristle.

The Firewater Chimney is maybe my favorite climb in Jtree. It's more of a calve burner stem-fest though, so maybe it's not burly enough to count. It does have a bit of easy squeeze near the top though. Fabulous rock quality.
No Self Respect and No Self Confidence both require some wide technique being flared grooves. They also require a variety of other techniques though. Speaking of those, has anyone here done Hyperventilation? That 10d flare over to the right of those on the Flying Fortress. The Troglodyte Crack also looks sort of cool. Never made the trip back out there to do those. Cinnamon Girl on the Tombstone also sounds pretty burly, although 5.11 OW is beyond me.

Boys and Girls, how's the wide-mojo-meter in Joshua Tree this weekend?
I'm coming! Show me the wide! I'll bring two pairs of Kirkland jeans that don't have holes yet.

Beth, there is a video of Spyork's that shows the events, with sound leading up to, and through, that moment. I don't remember rthe punchline either, and it escaped my lips!
Maybe it's on the Fetish?
