lakeview route on cannon cliff

nasty approach to cannon. melting snow and ice were dislodging massive amounts of rock.

Allison is cruising through the crux of pitch two of the Whitney-Gilman Ridge. The route was a conga line that day, but everyone was moving along well, and Allison we all made good time. And we all had good times!

Jojo on the last p of whitney gilman. we choise to stay on the Arete to finish the climb. Great pitch great climb

Here Matt has just made the crux high step move onto the slab above The Pipe on the Pipe Pitch (5.7). The WGR on Cannon Cliff in New Hampshire features great rock, interesting moves, little puzzles, and exposure and then more exposure! It is all there. Truly an historic, New England classic. Thank you Mr. Whitney and Mr. Gilman, you gutsy bastards!

The photo of the ridge was taken from near the base of Wiessner's Dike. From this view you can get a sense of the amazing exposure experienced on the Pipe Pitch (4th pitch, 5.6) midway up the climb; and the "wrap your hands around the narrow arete" part of the 5th pitch (5.6). For a sense of perspective, if you use your eyes, and perhaps a bit of imagination; you can see the red shirt of a second on the 2nd pitch white spire down low in the photo just above the trees in the foreground.

climbing the WG 5.7 and tons o fun but watch out for black flies

The first half of the second pitch was mixed climbing, but it got to thin ice above. Pitches 1 and 3 were thick. My second ever ice climb and I got to do the dike. WooHoo.

Cannon Cliff 12/05. It's 1000 feet from the talus to the top.

Jake getting to the crux moves on Union Jack.

We have a hungry Tom in the parking lot! I think Jon and I had spaghetti. It was good. I think we also ate some catfood. It wasn't good.

David on Reppys crack, nice hands. Great start to moby grape

Dennis leads up the strenuous crux on P8 of Lakeview. Notice how the only pro is at the base of the crack.

Zeb took this picture. this is the pitch before the pipe pitch.

me and mike on the whitney gilman ridge! scary... words words words

David on the first pitch of Tripple S. Great climb ! Just thought I'd throw it out there.

Gone but not forgotten. I took this shot from the parking area,just before dark. Always wanted to get back for a better shot.

This was at the end of the day and I took a shot or my hands at the end of the day...a little editing and walla...a Andy Warhol original.
