Tradman: how did you find PT's second pitch? people saying it's become easy for the grade with it being picked out and ladder-y?

we are going to the Lake this weekend!

I thought the crux was the 1st pitch on pump factor. It gets steeper as you go and seems to lean back a bit @ the top. Solid 4+ maybe 5- INMOP I felt that P2 was easy 4 or 4- super fun rt. have fun@ the Lake

got over to devils tower. It was 50 but very overcast so we bailed and did some BC skiing. Then went back in the pm and got a couple of pitches in.

solo tr's at Prescott, AZ. 70 degrees, sunny. Walked everything on the "time zone" wall in my tennis shoes. Feeling pretty cocky, as it was my first time off the couch in over ten years on named established routes, (even if they were 5.6). The only other stuff I've climbed has been no-name stuff I've developed near my house.

The next day tried a "5.9 classic! A 1968 testpiece" according to the guide book. I chickened out just above where the pic was taken. I don't trust the mini-trax tr stuff the same way I do a belayer. Felt like I was getting sucked into the crack, just bailed. Disgusting, F'n baby. Left my shoes at the base of the route after I cleaned my gear and walked down the trail. D'oh!

Tradman: it was intimidating. the approach was hell! deeeeep snow. and it's embarrassing but we thought we were at 20 Below but in the end it turns out we climbed the left Tablet. lame.

we will go back either this weekend or next, and try Renormalization. and then move up from there.

hike down was fun.

Anita, the tablets were called the Practice slabs in the older guide books;)
Left practice slab is pretty stout and probobly as hard as 20 below.
