Nah Mike, ya cant see right wing from there. By the way, I linked pitch 2 into 3 with a 60. Drag was minimal with long slings, and it means you are belaying at bolted anchors the whole time too. I had 2 meters of rope spare.

Yo Ryan that finger crack variation to the left is a route i helped scrub and FA with Aaron kristiansen. The lower 3 pitches are clean and provide a less burly alternative to the wide section of liquid gold. The upper couple pitches require a lot of work and will not be ready until next season.
Sick photos every body.
Nice send fish; you bring the wife and fetus up there? And whens then house warming party!

Hey Luke nice work on that one! We thought it was super fun, maybe 10b so a bit more difficult than the LG chimney, more than clean enough with good pro & moves. I saw the ropes on the upper pitches & it looks pretty good up there as well. Is there a name for this thing? Cormier crack??!
So nobody has any info on planet caravan??

They were probably just surveying the top of the Chief to see where to put the upper station for the gondola.

Not weird. It was to celebrate your send of some short rock, and mine and TKC's much more impressive 3 hour ascent of the Grand yesterday evening.

You mean Slhanay, perhaps? Although the story of its (re)naming isn't quite as told in a recent issue of Gripped.

Rumor has it, Psyche Ledge, Saturday September 8, 19:00 ish?
Unsanctioned, unofficial.
No booze, no fire, no mayhem.
Possible dinosaur sightings, war stories, slander and lies.
Unofficially, there's interest in designating the old haunt as historically significant and allowing for for some renovations.
That is if course if we're interested.
What's the odds it rains?
