For those of us who do not live in the valley or ever care too, for those of us who learned to plug gear in the forgotten corners of the Daniel Boon, who fought the poison ivy and gigantic spiders for a little excitement, for those of us that are not softened by the perfect splitter every ten feet. We often look at these 30 year old routs and wonder about the ones who got on them first. Routs like the quest, insanity ceiling, and tower rock are the test pieces that let us know when we have truly broken a grade. The adventure that you don't get anywhere else in the red. Maybe when you got on it, the rout felt easy, maybe you were already a 5.11 trad climber, for those of us that were not, we fought like hell to make it the top, and won't ever forget it.
