Re: [tallnik] Portaledge Anchor Point?

When I climb walls w/ my bf we have a little thing that we like to do...whoever gets the last solo time at the bivy for the day (either the last leader if we're not fixing or the belayer if we are) tries to have the bivy set up before the other person gets back from doing their thing.
If portaledges are involved, my relative lack of urinary aim usually makes it best for my ledge to go on the bottom if we're stacked or near the ledge/foothold if we're not.
So, one night last summer I was relieved to see a masterful flotilla of ledges assembled with relevant bivy items clipped to them when I arrived at the the belay. Positioning my ledge for the best girl-peeing realm (and stuff-organizing ledgelet) meant that I was off from the main anchor.
As I went to get into my ledge, he mentioned that I might freak out when I saw the ledge anchor:
But then assured me that there were great (#3 and 4 camalot) cams behind it. I was worth the picture though.
