This is me climbing on Classic Crack. A squeeze chimney....baptism by fire! It was my first ever climb outdoors! A great time, a wonderful day at Dismal Rock.

My wife sarah transitioning to chimneying on classic crack. We've had a lot of fun at this local Crag, and shocked at the amount of rock here in the middle of KY!

Half way through a great day with my wife, this is on the main ledge about a third of the way up classic crack at the base of the main chimney
