This is a photo of my red point attempt of Twinkie. I ended up bailing a few clips higher (it had been a long day and this was my last climb). Next time I'll finish it. Photo by Jason Teng

This climb has it all. Starts off on a slab with some thin moves to get in position for the overhanging wall. Take a good rest then fire up the pockets, clipping as quick as you can. There is a ledge you can get a good rest at 2/3 of the way up the overhanging section. This was the very last climb I got on to end a 2 week climbing vacation out east. I got to the anchors but didn't get the redpoint. Did get worked though. Rematch someday. A classic endurance route.

This is a composite of me climbing the ultra classic Twinkie.

Stefan took a pic of Twinkie, everyone was to gassed to even try and climb it after 13 hours. This pic so doesn't do it justice though.
