Climbers at the crux.

I've posted another couple of climbers here before. This pair were equally skillful!
You need to be VERY sure of your your technique, strength and above all your protection gear at this overhang!
The Guardian of the Mountains is stoically tolerating it all! And why not? After all, he is getting a free eyelash makeover!

I'd much rather see the view from where you stood than up there with the climbers!!!

Beautifully captured.
The rock demon looks very grim because he has something in his left eye... ;-))

It's the climbers that make this a special shot Andy.................it would be really difficult to ascertain the scale of that rock formation without them..........wonderful that it is!

Very nicely done..!!

So with the many photos I have taken of this rock structure, you have had no idea whether it is the size of a car or The Eiger!!!
I must think about these things more when lining up a shot!
Here are links to shots of this rock (I have many) taken from further off;

Amazing rock formation, and amazing climbers. They must be seriously into beauty in order to toil up here to fix eyelashes. ;-)))))

You may be right, Amelia! Thank you!
How have you been keeping, by the way?

I just love this mountain - it really does look like a face with an overhang of eyebrows - and the climbers look so tiny there - I hadn't realised how big this outcrop is until I saw the climbers. Amazing photo
