Early 1990s. Took a fall up high on Black President on this #1/2 size rigid Friend. The cam held but bent. I got back on the route below it and ended up finishing the route nicely. The friend was retired.

Thank you to CF/DE/DB for a fantastic route.
The Prez from the approach...
Black President. <br> <br> The spicy downclimb prompted the addition of a two bolt anchor at the top. 120 ft. rappel.
