Mars Attacks - Second Pitch

Patrick leading the 2nd pitch of Mars Attacks. This pitch is totally cool - a long (80 feet?) horizontal traverse around the corner following the limestone band. While this section isn't difficult and is well protected, it's really fun exposure while stepping from section to section. Interestingly, the trailing climber gets the same fall potential as the leader. Photo taken by Joe Irons - www.ironsphotography.com
