If you took it, how could you be the one doing the TRonspotting?

That's Sunny and Steep area! Steep Thrills 5.12a :) Good climb! I remember there was a party that went at it after us, and one of them lead it and the other TR'ed it. She fell and took a massive swing directly towards the boulder. She had a spot that probably saved her years of back/spinal pain and issues. Then again, her spot got rolled, and this spotter would be been destroyyyyyyed by the swing.

i think think the best thing about that picture is that if the climber had fallen, the spotter probably would not have been able to do anything... looks to me that she's standing in the wrong place to catch the swing and her anchor is preventing her from moving!

I think bubble wrap and steel toe boots are imperative.
