Any other advice anyone?

He has a long drive ahead of him to hook up with us...

Thanks for the offer..I am a bolt clipper when I hit the Red though.

I did two sweet trad lines at Jackson last weekend....I'll tell you tonight

Welcome to old kentuck is the best 9 EVER!

I thought Crack Attack was really sweet... maybe not the best 5.9, but I haven't been climbing trad long enough to tell you what the best one is.
