^^^ don't complain about photoshares. It's more fun and less ot than most stuff here.
Superstem = shortest approach in Yosemite. Kinda dirty. Easy to tr. Good summer shade.

I once watched a very 'accomplished' woman climber stem her way up an overhanging face climb. Made it look hard and awkward. I did it next with nary a single stem standing on all of the holds UNDER my feet. Stemming has a place but it ain't always a useful posture.

Kill the witch! Long live the stem!
Kidding Jan. Not all of us are blessed with your super-human gecko-like prowess. ;)
