Troy bolted another one close by this one (which was sent apparently a few days ago---13a or so). The new one is said to be much harder .14a or b

Rocktoberfest and RocTrip will feature a flash contest that is open to the Petzl athletes as well as anyone else. Yes, there will be more than one category.
Additionally, Petzl is offering a bounty on certain projects that will be paid to the athlete that sends the route and that bounty will be matched to the RRGCC. And yes, the route must be sent during the event.
By the way, Chris Sharma confirmed his attendance today!!

so work the moves and get set to do it but don't send it until that weekend so the RRGCC can get the cash, everyone wins that way!

I the Troy of Iowa bolted 2 awesome lines on that wall and man is the left line a blast. Eric Stevenson sent the left line FA as of Wed. the 2nd of May 2007. we need a few stronger climbers to get on it to confirm rating but i think it's about a really hard 12d or easy 13a but still a blast. The holds are pretty solid but you never know.
The line out right is a different story. very hard, buckle up. I'd be surprized if it is in the 13s- I'm sure it's harder than that, veery solid line with nothing but love for you, and lots of nothing.
It's an open Project, good luck

the lurkist loves the third person. He shall hence forth adopt the third person reference in all comunique's herein.
he would like to say that Iowa kicks ass. He has heard about Limestone in that great state along tributaries draining into the Mississippi. Tall and good?
