    North Sixshooter


    Fingers lock deep in the crack that widens to maddening thumbstacks. (1)
    Only commitment to move on insecure and pumpy locks will get you up.
    Relief as the void grows large enough to be filled perfectly by hands.
    Bigger and bigger, fists then chickenwing grunting through off width. (2)
    Strain for a crimp on the face, pull your body in to find rest.
    Belay at the top on tattered webbing and knotted cord. (3)

    Skirt accross a sloping ramp and place a stopper. (4)
    Reaching high, tips and then perfect fingers with flailing feet.
    A rest in a pod and then back to locking knuckles.
    Hands are wonderful though the roof is stressful, but only for a moment. (5)
    Traverse left again or you'll end up in a liquid sky.
    Here the hands are too small for average humans.
    But to layback up the diagonal roof is devine. (6)
    Pull into the pod. Place blue and gold, pull up the line. (7)

    Hands to another roof, the crack is too small for hands.
    Expose yourself to the sun, the desert air, the empty space. (8)
    Pull onto the face of the climb.
    The jams are perfect, but the exposure is airy.
    Double cracks provide options. (9)
    Fingers and hands and fun scrambling.
    Rearrange gear on the sides and enter entirely into the chimney. (10)
    Grunt, moving painful inches at a time.
    Shoulders and knees leave their skin behind
    Cams get stuck between body and rock, pinching, stabbing.
    Finally, wider then sunlight and scrambling to the top. (11)
    It's my job to call the BS around here. Get over it.
