Which jug?

Can't you tell by the picture?

it was the giant sidepull on top of the heuco. Hurt like hell when it crushed my foot!

I don't remember that, just a little gastony left hand crimp to get you back over to the crack. Was it inside the heuco? Killer route, btw. You lead it? Heady for sure!

nah, I didn't lead it, but want to next time I get on it. Yasi led it in fine style!

The funny thing about that jug is that 2 people yarded hard on it before me and it didn't budge (if you look hard, you can see it's well chalked). I barely touched it and it fell onto my foot.

Was it way out left when you come out of the hueco? I kinda rememeber something there. Wonder if it will be harder now?

Yep, very cool route. Maybe not quite R rated, but pg-13 for sure.

yeah, it was way out left as you come out of the hueco. It freaked me out and I was afraid to pull on anything after that, but there is plenty there still. Just be careful

Why are you wearing your atc when you're toproping? GAWD... what a gumby! Also, it's blocking the money shot.

I never take my atc off since I rappell to get down. It apparently also helps me remain modest. Bonus.
