The last problem just before we reached the trail. This cliff was daunting and took some jury rigging to get off. The little clearing at the upper right was the funnel that dumped us out on the cliff edge. If you look closely about 1/3 from the left you will see our blue runner we used to rap off. photo by Jim Foster
