This Off width shares the same name as the party capital of the south. The first ascensionist is notorious for turning shit cracks to instant classics. This route is on the most foul mouth crag in Idaho Not carnival crack. |

This ultra-classic is typically climbed over two days but has seen a recent car-to-car blitz in a blistering sub-6 hours, unseating the previous record from a well-known PNW alpinist. Edit: Correct Saign! In 2018, Scott Bennett (solo) went C2C in 5'57" from Esmerelda Trailhead, bettering Colin Haley and Andy Wyatt's time of 6'45" a few years earlier. |
