holy crap, thats sweet! that rock looks like you could get some nice friction on it... and that it could tear you up! is that 'gritstone'? Just saw 'hard grit' a coupla weeks ago, bout peed my pants when the guy took the whipper and broke his leg.

yeah, those are hands of 'gritstone'. Joe Brown and Don Whillens mauled their hands on that kind of rock for decades, sending unbelievably hard routes for the time.
