A somewhat obscured view of "the Prow," a Linville Gorge 5-pitch favorite that is all too easy at 5.4 but still very intimidating with the wind ripping around you. To give you an idea of the size, that crack above my head can easily swallow a person standing straight up. Here, Brian P, Bob, Alex, and Jeremy are two-teaming "the Daddy," another Gorge favorite and perhaps one of the finest 5.7s in NC. On this day Jeremy nearly bit the dust when he fell and sliced open Alex's rope on the top-out.
