Photos from Smiling the Hard Way

Me pulling the 5.10bR section.
Setting up for the crux. I got beta from Devin that I wouldn't need any more gear after that horizontal. So I left everything there for him! Notice the CCK crack to the left to me. And the Vulture in the background...he knows what's about to happen.
Half way through the crux....ahhhh

Slipping...ah! Gotta get that rope out from under my leg!
And the rest is history. I didn't get my leg out from under the rope, and I took a nice big fall. I was definitely smiling the hard way after that. What a great route.

(Thanks Pete for snapping the photos.)
