What's wrong with this picture?

Placing a cam? Slotting a nut? Slinging a tree?

I certainly was on belay, he just tied a big figure 8 on-a-bight on the brake side of the rope.

Single placement used for an anchor instead of 2 or 3.....

Yeah, a helmet would be a good idea...

Actually, the biggest thing wrong with this picture is that Jesse isn't smoking a cigarette in it. :)

Little feller ,JB, and Overcammed are all correct. Theres still one other detail I noticed. We did wear our helmits. I took mine off when it got hot. After that first pitch we started carring 20 or so slings too. The pitches were nice and long.
I knew I could count on the rest of you for some fun answers.

Are there even two points on that anchor? Looks like you're tied in to one piece. I'm having trouble reading what the rope's doing...
