<font size=2 color=darkred>The pic below was taken at Palisade Head (No Chalk Area) North Shore, Northern Minnesota, U.S. in 18 Aug. 2002

According to the guide book: \"this route is named Superior Crack 5.8+; this climb may elicit more cursing per linear foot than any other route in this area. It is harder down low; prepare for a big swing if you fall.\"

The route was rated 5.8+ but everyone who climbed it agreed this route was more like 5.9+ ( including myself ); 85 degrees overhanging all the way up, 80-foot height, rappelling down from above is often the simplest solution.

Superior Crack 5.8+ Pic1
這張是在North Shore, Minnesota於八月中旬拍的
照片裡著藍色上衣的是Dan,他rappelling至岩壁下方協助他的同伴上攀主繩
因為他同伴沒辦法完成這條名為Superior Crack 5.8+的路線
攀過這條路線的人都覺得這應該不止5.8
而且如果不慎落下,必須重新回到地面上攀
從照片裡可以很清楚的顯示這個crack其實是有點overhanging

KGB 5.7 Pic1
這是我在八月中旬跟一群老美到North Shore, Minnesota攀岩的照片之一
這條路線其實應該是從左邊的crack攀起
當時我應老美的要求往右邊上攀
因岩壁上能讓手腳可以平衡的點實在是有限
於是就成了這樣的姿勢
接著我還得往左攀回原來的route哩!!!

KGB 5.7 Pic2
這張是回到crack後我嘗試著以雙手抓著edge\"走\"上去的照片
這條路線的crack其實有兩個...
根據guide book上說是中間細細的那條...很容易上攀,所以是5.7
另一條則是我上攀的...呃...蠻花力氣的
不過如果手腳快一點的話,感覺倒是挺過癮的!!!

KGB 5.7 Pic3
第三張照片...
老實說那樣上攀挺累人的...
但為了讓老美看看台灣人的精神...
呃...很累也要裝著很輕鬆的樣子...
結果,沒半個人嘗試以我這樣的攀法來攀這條路線...
哇咧...54321...
