Allucinogen Wall
These two photos are of Ryan Nelson working the first free ascent of the Hallucinogen Wall, a VI 5.11 A5 put up in 1980 that went all-free at 5.13 plus some dry-tooling.

It's a discipline steeped in history, too, peopled by pilots and inventors and former custom auto-shop owners with more than a few FAs to their names. IAIpenglow from German Alpengl hen is usually misunderstood. Although we often use the term to describe rosy sunrise or sunset light on alpine...
