So we had to bypass the Leavittator cuz I dropped all of Tom's big cams. But as Bob and Doug McKenzie would say in The Beer Hunter sketch, "like the punishment is not too bad, eh?"

[No, not when you get all the leads, and I have to wear your dirty clothes so I don't freeze to death. - Tom]

This might be the all time head crack - old A4, it was a cakewalk after the horrors of the seldom-travelled pitches of Scorched Earth.

Beneath Tom in his ledge, the majestic concave face of El Cap sweeps to the east. You can see climbers on Zodiac. This is the money shot - because this is what brings me back to El Cap again and again. There is no place on earth I'd rather be than up here with the peregrine falcons.
