Photo Challenge #1

by scrappyv14 on Feb.24, 2010, under Photo Challenge

OK, I’m going to try something new here on climbidaho.com, a photo challenge. Once a week I will post a photo with a question, it’s the readers job to answer the question correctly by leaving a comment. Although the winner will not get anything other than bragging rights, if this becomes popular enough we may be able to find some sort of prize giveaways in the future…it’s up to you really.

Let’s start off with this photo:

To win you must correctly identify the name and location of the boulder problem shown above. BONUS: Name the climber

I think the youthful Sus and that receading hairline gave away the fact that it was Jamey. Yes, I vote reynolds area. Dont know the rocks well enough to name it though. I have some extra photos no one has seen if you run low on photos Mike.

Look at that skinny dude with great spotting technique! Oh man, with a spot like that no one would ever crack their head on that coffin sized boulder. Maybe that stick figure should get rid of that rock and pad it out right like a real man. Hippie.

Ha, nice Matt but Steff beat you. Actually it was almost 9 years ago that the photo was taken. You get points for humor though. Notice the big rock that is no longer there too?

Stay tuned sometime next week for Photo Challenge #2.
