Thanks to John for the great lead! You've really come a long way in the past year.

I'm contemplating a TR, but here's a few pics in the interim:

Wishing I could head down there a few more times this year... I had an excellent time - fun climbs (also Teakettle & Coffeepot). Dallas is certainly a different animal compared to Teakettle - having the same class rating doesn't really tell the story.

Here's a look down the North Face (1,000' down to the snow) from where I set up belay after the crux:

Great photos guys! Fun weekend, great area, and we all managed to stay away from those 'Marmots with Rabies'. :-P Thanks for having me along.
