I talked to Rosie last night at The Crack Fiends Festivus Party. She has never been so scared and had so much fun as when she has been climbing with the two of you. Its funny how the whole Condor Egg Soup thing has passed in a very nice way for all involved.

I'm intrigued about the history of the Fingers since the FA is mentioned as tyrolean and there is also mention of a leap from North to South finger in Brad's book - I'm guessing they climbed North Finger and then leaped across to South Finger and set up a Tyrolean traverse for the followers. There is an old single bolt with an aluminum "tab" hanger on the North summit - I forgot to get a pic of this old anchor and the summit register. I thought it was cool that the old anchor was left in place.
