Cool send for sure. Is that the one with the Mono's? I had the oppertunity to pull on a few of those at wild iris, and it is a cool feeling for sure.

It's the one to the left of it that goes up the arete. The one with the mono's is Nicoderm. Power2U was working on that one last week and it just looks painful.

Thanks! I was nervous as hell after I did the crux so once I got that sidepull, I brought my feet WAY through to fight it. That arete is heady too.

What about the end of August through September too? There is some prime time climbing weather in there. I agree with you though. I am excited to hear what everyone will be sending after a summer of bouldering and working out.

Good job, I was with porter and doug the day that went up. We had waiting in the love shak for a few days for it to quit raining so porter could finsh it up. after we all did that day we decided it was 12a. Doug with his long arms thought it was 11c. He gave in and agreed with us. I love the barn door affect after you latch on to the arete. then we went over and put up mule and and another doug reed route.which we agreed was 10c. even thought the guide book says 11.

Hey Tbone: I had a young man work with me this week named JR. Great young man. Said he climbed with you and Jeff last weekend. He was genuinely honored to...as he put it “climb with and meet some of the “historical” climbers. "Old man" how does it feel to have made the history books?
