Jason leading the 3rd pitch of The Yawn

Jason leading the 3rd pitch of The Yawn

The Yawn is a 4 pitch 5.9 squeeze chimney on Medlicott Dome in Tuolumne Meadows, Yosemite National Park. The picture is of me Jason "dune" Hassing, taken by my climbing partner Marc Sisco. The Camera is a Pentax Optio-A10 (8MP 3X ptical zoom, ultralight) digital POS (point and shoot, or piece of s***, whichever you prefer. It has battery problems, but otherwise a good performer in daylight). Did this route on a perfect day with perfect light. This climb is truly photogenic and could be the location of really awesome shots without a lot of setup. My buddy Marc didn't even know how to use my camera, didn't use zoom or any features other than full auto. Not that this picture is all that but you can see the potential with the angles of rock and light.
