William Graham seconded the CCK back when he first started climbing, and can still remember


the combination of excitement and sheer panic when on the P3 traverse. Now, a couple years later on lead, not too much has changed. PHOTO BY: Robert Ruef

ON THE COVER: Mike Foley balls deep in the V12 crux of Jaws II. From the undercling-side pull Foley stabs for the double-ticked crimp around the corner, cuts his feet, and blasts up the rest of the route, which includes a huge move off of bad holds and the red- point crux of China Beach.
