My apparent nemesis ...


I recall facing this spot two years ago and not being tall enough for the reach or brave enough for the leap. I opted to be lowered and remained a bit disappointed that I couldn't make the move to join the rest of my fellow climbers on the top of what is known as "Whale Head".

Out of nowhere, it appeared before me again last weekend. I was just shy in my stretch but found the courage to spring off the wall only to find that the hold was much thicker than anticipated and my fingers scrambled before sliding off.

Studying this photo allows me to see my next attempt.

Soon ...
