Oh, you mean Women in Comfortable Shoes. Good call, but no. This route is about 7x harder (grade wise) ;)
Funny enough I did WiCS a couple of days ago, followed by Stiff Upper Lip. Best .11a I’ve done in the Bulletheads in a long time.

Nice pics guys! Thanks!

Jmace- Not sure but is it on the left side of the squaw?

Brendan-

Pic one is indeed the Black Dyke but it is actually Pitch 2 of Chasing Rainbows on the Malamute
Image

2 is Pitch 3 of Bullethead East finger crack variation?

3 is Cresent Dyke on top of the Cresent Tower and the last real pitch on Frimers epic cleanup gift Milk Road. The controversy over this one was pretty funny. I think? You kinda threw me off with the 7x thing.

Hey Lurch,

Chasing Rainbows p2, you got it :wink:

The other two are incorrect. But it does look like the Bulletheads from the belayer/shooter’s perspective.
I thought the last pic (of the diagonal dyke) would be a little more obvious to you guys.

Lol, no. I actually found the above climb a little harder on the feet than Cerberus.

This, is Cerberus :D

OK, this is a bit of a shot in the dark...but it looks like the Malamute to me, and from my creaky memory: is it Quagmire Crack?

Steve

ps: I don't have a clue about J Mace's "guess you would have to finish this 5 or 6 pitch route to recognize this final pitch"...anybody recognize it?

Jesse is that Empire of the Sun then? It is in the Select so not fully obscure, if so.

Woo - hooo! It's been over a decade since my one and only time leading Quagmire Crack. It is a fun crack...I'll have to get back there one of those days. Thanks for the memory-inducing photo!

Steve

Now somebody please correctly guess J Mace's photo...
