This is me hitting the crux while dynamo_ belayed me. Good exposure, great climb, and great times.

Late in the day and in full sun, Scott Perkins leads the second pitch of Primitive Paradox, a beautiful two-star route at Tallulah Gorge, as I belay. It was the perfect finish to a fine day of intense climbing. Unbeknownst to us, we were under observation. David Noxon and his son from Charlotte were watching us from the scenic overlook on the other side of the gorge and taking pictures. We met them in the parking lot as we were leaving, and he was gracious enough to share this striking shot of Tallulah at its finest. Photo courtesy of David Noxon.
