CCK (5.7+/5.8 Trapps) is probably the most photographed pitch at the Gunks. This was on a cold windy day at the end of October. The sun had dropped down to the west behind the cliff highlighting the foliage but darkening my "hero" shot. I should have instructed my photographer to use a flash but I guess I'll just have to climb it again.

The easy but run-out climb up to the Mittellegi hut on the Eiger.

Shot from top of 2nd pitch on Lotta Balls. Climber in blue is on Black Magic. Climber in red is on Romper Room wall.

Coming up the run-out but easy slabs to the Mitteleggi hut.
