What was the belayer doing? Texting?

Brand new belayer, and with a gri-gri to boot. Lowering went ok till the last 10 feet when she dropped her about 5 feet really fast. She let out a pretty good shriek too.

haha I should probably add that to the "are gri-gri's dangerous thread".

One rope will be fine for that route.

Its a good first multipitch route. If you are a 5.10 leader you should have no problem...its graded pretty soft.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
