Hard (as in Mega Hard) Crack Proj CT
|
So anyone interested in a highball mega hard project? Been looking at this thing for years now... figured posting it on the webs might attract some needed attention. |
|
Sounds interesting, but a bit too far a drive for one problem. |
|
What I can tell you is this is not a 5.12 climber's proj (more like 5.14) and, might even be better as a short route... as for your comment, I'll let you figure out the error in your assumption, well, hope you figure it out... |
|
I wasn't aware I had made any assumptions. But thanks for the beta on how hard it is - clearly outta my league. |

|
I did not assume that. My response was just a personal one - not meant to dissuade other folks who might be interested in the other problems too. |
|
Word... thnx Gabe! If you haven't been you should... |
|
Depending on how clean it is I'll play with it next time I am there...course you ll probably be there too since Ill invite you hahaha |

Aid it and bag the FA. The FFA is worthless without the vision! I recommend ground up tactics. You may need to invest in a haul bag though. |

I did just get some hooks in the mail yesterday but they're for bolting on steep rock. And josh... awesome... its pretty clean just a little lichen. And after messing on this and getting shut down ;-P you can send that traverse proj! |
|
I'll load up what I have not lost |
|
Today? oh well Thursdays are rough for me but ? |

Within 50 ft I stopped looked down on my pants and found two micro ticks. Immeditely turned back and walked to back of bald rock and in the scenic route. Oh and I found another one after walking back 50ft through that brush. Fu*k that... I wouldn't go in that way anymore period. On Sunday I even placed some cairns and did some trail work on the way in along the backside to help you guys out... |

Three or four days ago, somewhere some places would have looked like a Christmas tree full of hanging ornaments. To you. Now mind you Draw Thief, since my go to rope is a 9 ml 150 foot Edelweiss Extreme that is 35 + years old. How old is a rope that I feel is to old? . .. .. ..old ! you should think before you use any found or hanging gear. I regularly leave very very old gear in place. While I know its history - how can you be sure that draw you stole hasn't been in fumes ? Lost for the summer in a car trunk ? Then left at some point as a cryptic warning or as a marker. If you use it always equalize - make it the backup. Or don't Ef with it Are you coming to a cliff near me ? This is the time that I leave gear to pre protect the tops of the things that freeze up. Please don't steal tat and draws off of climbs. If you DID NOT build it place it or bail from it Leave it alone. Your life force is worth more Than that ~been in the car trunk to long ~ draw! |
