Our beloved Horatio sent Armageddon yesterday turning it to a free line. Bad ass send and one scary ass lead. That line is gorgeous and deserved all the effort that Matt's put into it. All his work paid off.

Congrats, Matt! You must be PSYCHED!

What are you naming it?

You said he lead it. That sounds super scary. Great send Ho, that thing sure is purdy, but not nearly as purdy as you.

Any idea on the rating? :?:

considering the old name and the apparent difficulty I think the name of the climb and the rating should be 6.16

thanks. i think the name will be snotrocket. i'd like to say the thing is .11+ just so people would get on it because i think it's one of the coolest routes i've ever done, but it's probably a little harder than that. it was so technical, and i had to get it so dialed before i could do it on toprope, that i really don't know what the grade is. .12+ i guess. maybe R, but i really don't know what that means.
