North Ridge (Mount Stuart)

Shirley liebacking the finger crack near top of the lower pitch of The Great Gendarme (5.9) on North Ridge of Mount Stuart. This is pitch 12 according to Nelson and Potterfield guidebook. To the untrained eye Shirley’s expression could be mistakened for a smile while in fact she was instructing me to put the camera away and concentrate on the effing belaying! 11:30 am on July 30, 2005.
