Another shot of Kole on Acid Test Crack. Mark Hawthorne took a picture of Kole at this spot from above while my wife took this picture from across the canyon.

Kole on Acid test Crack (12a) on 7 Jan 2006.

Kole at the (2nd?) crux of Acid Test Crack, 12a. Heinz Zak allegedly strolled up this difficult line during the first ascent.

Grievous Angel, short, kinda cool. I should lead this... oh wait, it's trad. Photo by Alex.

Alex's rope has been through it all. Now it's been in Sean's mouth. Here, a very happy Sean styles Waterslip Down. No PSing- this was a high contrast day. The base was in the shade and most of the route was in the sun.

A funky take on Grievous Angel. No PSing involved.

This is the best picture I have to remember her by......

instant exposure as you step out over the Gold Pool for this classic fingers route.

Autum is the best time of year for climbing at the Forks ( as it tis in most places); I love the crisp air, sunny skies and clean cracks with a great view.

Thomas enjoys the few off-width moments between the hand crack and the squeeze on Supercrack.

Thomas staring down the work ahead. Unlike Supercrack of the Desert, Supercrack of the Forks goes from hands to body!

Thomas pondering whether the off-width or the sqeeze is the better part of the Forks Supercrack.

These get you to a pedestal where you can rest for the last overhang. Aaron and Jon climbed it 050804, sonso45 took photo on nikon coolpix.

And you thought you had to go to CO to wet your axes ? Believe it or not this is the waterfall below the Three Yogis at Paradise Forks. Maybe we should think about a Flagstaff Ice Festival ?

From the guidebook: "A very large camming unit may give the leader a sense of security, however it would be difficult to fall out of the chimney." Sure. Photo by Helen Palmiera, Brian Boyd climbing.

This is a climb just to the left of the Prow which requires a long stem at the crux. Needless to say this one kicked my rear !
