After Will and Alison warmed up on Tent Peg, and Angela and I had climbed Kingpin, I convinced Will that he just had to climb Tricouni Nail as we had the year before.  This route has the reputation of being one of the best 5.8's in the Black Hills, and I must agree.  The fact that this is one of the few Royal Robins' routes in the Black Hills also adds to the intrigue.  This photo shows Will at the one good rest stance on the route.
