Our first look at the spectacular Cannon Cliff. The route we planned on climbing was the Whitney-Gilman Ridge (5.7), the first route of ascent on the cliff and one of the most classic moderate climbs in the Northeast. It is the prominent ridge on the far south end of the cliff (left-hand side of the photo); we climbed directly on the line between share and sunlight. In the corner is an ice route called the Black Dike (NEI 4+).
