Lonely Vigil

Looking down the “stem box” near top of pitch 2 of Lonely Vigil. Shirley is belaying from bolts atop pitch 1.5. Photo was taken from just above the stem box and at the base of the hard, short dihedral marking top of P2. This is not a great belay since you risk falling onto your belayer should you rip in the stem box – there’s no crack on the wall where the belay is (January 1, 2005).
