Found this on flickr. Entitled "The Peak". What problem, anyone?

what a tease! looks like it might be familiar, but i doubt it. i'll guess nuda's tartan though, fuck it.

Hmm. Ground looks too bare compared with this photo:

twas just a guess. thought it might be the farrar problem that starts right under, hence the clear floor. it's that curvy hold up and right that looks familiar. can't think of anywhere else. i've never seen that roof below crag x dry.

its not the cragx roof, the line of holds on that faces the other way and the ground is wrong. that photo does look like nudist's tarte aux tatin but i'd maybe have expected to see somthing of the right wall in shot, and maybe the base being a bit ledgier? but thats just based on memory. but i can't think of anywhere that looks more like this, so i'd say nudas still.

Seems it's a problem in a different Peak.

Quote from: omar caballero
It's a traverse in a boulder spot named "el pico" in Tenerife (canary islands, Spain)

crag identification is 90% confidence, 10% knowledge and 10% self belief.

There is no way that's Tenerife. That Bonjoy lookalike has no dreads and everyone is far too pasty.

i remember the pic. as it reads in the caption, it was on an old pareti magazine issue. there was a challenge for the most ripped climber in italy, with a level of at least french 8b.
although probably (but i'm not sure) a joke, this idiocy pissed me off so much that i wrote a letter to the magazine, explaining why they were a bunch of idiots, writing such stupid articles. there were and are already too many stupids to pollute the crags, we didn't and don't now need more of them, oiled and ready from a sauna.
oh well... whatever.
