The North Face of Shag RockIt is actually a nice looking line, but the rock is kinda friable. The cracks definitely need to be cleaned up a bit to safely hold pro.

The North West corner/face of Shag RockThis is probably the best route on Shag Rock. Too bad it is so loose and covered in pigeon poo at the top.

The atmosphere at CharlestonThis is what you are climbing next to, when you climb at Charleston. Unfortunately, it had clouded over by the time I took this shot, giving it more of a stormy feel, rather than the bright sunshine earlier in the day.

Thankfully, this was the first placementI tend to avoid offwidths, so I don't get to place my #5 BD cam very often, but Lonely On The Lead just screams, "stick a big cam in me". Right at the start at that, so I couldn't say no....

Contemplating the start of Lonely On The LeadAfter getting rid of the #5 cam, at waist level, I felt much lighter and ready to takle the route ahead. It just looked awefully steep from there. Photo by kadiez

A rather steep lineIf you are feeling strong, and a few loose bits of rock don't bother you, Main E Yank might be for you.
