Bit of a niche question, this, but what's the best capture you've seen of that part of climbing we're all so familiar with: the struggle of man/woman against gear? More common, of course, in winter, when a gripped leader is inclined to weld nuts, hexes and pegs into the crag with a 650g hammer. It just occurred to me that I've seen very few photos of this!

Sadly I don't have the book. Any chance of posting it? (or PM'ing!)
