He has to go up and right along that seam... read last time they did these pitches was 4 years ago. So ya they're tring to figure it out... again. He goesm over to the seam on right then down climb it to anchors for the 13a ptich. |

I think those with the best seat in the house are the likes of Warren Harding, Chuck Pratt & a host of "Those That Were There First" (aid or otherwise -- doesn't matter), invisibly hovering in their own port-a-ledge palace, completely digging this whole thing. |

Morgan and Lanky thanks for the clarification, it'll be fun to watch them try to figure out the 13a pitch then based on what we've seen so far. |
|
Man I hope they can handle the last 40 feet of 3rd class climbing to the top. After all that time on the vertical it might be too flat. I would hate to see one of them trip and to redo the lead. |

steezy traverse lead from t.c. |
|
I thought that was Kev? Climber now is following, right? And I'm almost positive that's Tommy cause he was wearing a Nano Air before |
|
Is KJ finishing up 29 right now? I'm not amazing at reading topos. |
|
Pretty sure TC has led both pitches while KJ has followed. They just finished pitch 30 I believe. P31, 13a is up next. 2 left! |

Not going to lie watching him stick that after 4 tries was pretty rad. |

When i first saw the thread and live feed i thought "Lame.. i aint got time to sit and watch all that..". And here I am.. an hour later.. watching. Well it may be 5.13 but at least he has 20lbs of the world's lightest climbing gear hanging off him. |

I'm anticipating that tomorrow employers across america will look back at today and wonder why there was such a large decrease in productivity. |
