Classic Jiu Valley rack
This is my friend Misu's rack. The Jiu Valley, in Romania, is a very poor coal-mining region, so the local climbers use what they can get thier hands on. Most of these pins are home-made, or harvested from other routes. Needless to say, I had a steep learning curve when I started climbing with the locals. Really makes you appreciate the gear we take for granted...
