The Gobbler, a Black Velvet Canyon Classic

Last month I climbed a sweet route called the Gobbler (III 5.10) on the Black Velvet Wall in Red Rock, NV.  The route is a direct start to Dream of Wild Turkeys, but is also a worthwhile objective on its own.  Superb face climbing engages the mind, and a weird and tricky chimney engages the abs, and knees.  
A climber named Kira took these photos from the belays on Dream of Wild Turkeys and just sent them on.  Enjoy!
