an excited chap at the Shire yelling from the anchors of the 5.8
"Yes! My first redpoint onsight flash hanging the draws at the Red!"
Way to "get 'r done" in one fell swoop.

My frends overheard this statement at the ten wall at Roadside, "Go for the MONO--it's a two-finger!"
Hauling a big ego up a route adds at least a full grade.

There was a nice couple at Johnny's Wall saturday. They did the 5.8 then the girl cleaned it on rappel. Only she threaded the rope through the
hangers , not the rings! Naturally, they had some trouble pulling the rope down. They had some silly "reasons" why that was the way to rap.

running a rope right thru normal hangers? their reasons must have included a death wish.

Unfortunately, no. I think I was busy belaying or something. It's beyond me why anybody would think that was a good idea.

I am sure they thought..."the hangers are attached to the rock and those rings might break"
