The intrinsic pinning in twinned and untwinned single-crystal YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}O{sub 7{minus}{delta}} is observed using a novel crossed-magnetic-field technique for obtaining angular resolutions of {Delta}{theta}{lt}0.005{degree}. The pinning occurs for magnetic-field directions within a critical angle {theta}{sup *}{lt}1{degree} of the Cu-O planes. The data are discussed in the context of a lock-in transition of vortices in the {bold a}-{bold b} plane of the crystal.
