I'd appreciate it if someone would please mark on the following image where the three gashes are...

Also, feel free to mark where you placed gear, what size, and with which hand.

There, there, and there. Could you see where I was pointing.

I'm pretty sure there's a horizontal rail for something small in the beginning (Aliens). I can see it in the pic but hard to point out (see that big dark hollow in the bottom center of the pic? It's right below that). Then I think you go up and right to that chalked up seem then traverse left and the crux is making the next move up to another seem. I think. It's been a few years and I didn't lead it.

You should do Gripto just to the right while you're there. Cool little move down low and then it's over.

Funny story Yasi...I used my gear this past weekend after a looong while, racked up, and half way in the climb I realized several of my cams were locked tight. Very entertaining discovery!!!

Its actually a traverse. Gear is as follows:

#2 brassie for Winkin.
#4 Ushba Mountainworks titanium nut for Blinkin.
#3 BigBro for Nod.

Oh, and its taped feet.

Good luck.
