Motherlode soloing

[JB]

So, i was thinking that everybody gets quite excited when they do something that seems risque or against the grain.... like free solo at the lode. Also, everyone else gets bent out of shape about it.

Well, there's nothing like making something commonplace to ruin everybodies excitement about it, so i started this thread where people could all talk about how they've soloed at the lode. I mean, we all do it all the time right? It's no big thing really.

For example, here's me soloing a Hugh Loeffler route at the lode. It was no big deal I was relaxed the whole way.




So, what have you soloed at the lode. Don't be modest! If everybody sprays, then nobody will!!

did you use that 3 finger pocket between the round, white slopers? I hear it's good, but a bit manky.

[JB]

you mean the "muddy undercling".... nah. I didn't need it.

JB,
you are among friends here. You don't have to use euphemisms like "soloing a Hugh Loeffler route". It is okay to be married and still have needs and wants. That is why the brothers created the down low. This is a new century, come on out and play, okay?

Tandem climbing! Why didn't I think of that?

ahhh, so you went for the little chickenhead! I prefer that beta myself.

You sporties might get away with pulling on other climbers but that shit don't fly in trad! Trees and bushes are still OK.

Does that mean you'd prefer to go for the knothole lock-off ynot?
