anyone been on this or sent this route? i haven't, but sources tell me something must have broken, because it seemed impossible?

When I on-sighted it last winter in 30-below weather, I gave it about .13b

It could have seemed harder than it is just because of the ice though...

HF I have done it few times. real technical with small holds. I have not been on it for a few years. If it is warm out it is alot harder!!. When i redpointed it the temp was about 50. I left a tr on it for some friends and when i went to clean it and tear it down it had warmed up to about 70 and i barely got back up the thing. Try it on a cool cloudy day! I dont believe anything has broken on it . It is just way different than most red river routes. it is slabby and technical.

Thanks for the softball lob, H. It's not everyday that I get to spray about a route I've done, not to mention a route I've done and you haven't. To make it all the better I get give you advice/ input and feel superior about myself. I must be a bad man. so, to get on with it....
I did it and it seemed 12a to me. sorry you can't do it. Must be a reach thing.
thanks again.
forever lurking

on the contrary my incredibly lengthy foe...i have not been on the route. my extreme conditions partner has given me the lowdown about how it should be rated 5.impossible. however, slabs are usually not my game, so it could very well prove to be your victory yet.

you know, you just don't quit do you yasmeen? i'm not "funny" or "kidding" or even "just foolin' with ya" as some would say. i'm furious as we speak! the only reason i get on here is to vent my large amount of anger and frustration. the only joy out of this board, is making people pissed off really really bad. even their pee pee. so in conclusion, quit laughing, smiling, or having any general sense of eutopia...for my sake.
