From KJ
Today we started our push! It may be a few weeks before we walk on flat ground again, but we are psyched.
We sent the first five pitches this afternoon (12b, 13a, 13c, 12b, 12d wet).
The goal for tomorrow is to climb pitched 6-9 (13c, 14a, 13d, 13b).
Thanks for all the kind words and stoke everyone. It's battle time!
Day 2 was a big day for us. We sent pitches 6-9 over the course of 10 hours. I split two tips today which is unfortunate, but thankfully the next few pitches, 10-11, are not sharp.
Here's a run down of how today went. Thanks to Big UP Productions and Brett Lowell for the photo!
Pitch 6, 13c: Tommy led first go and I followed on TR first go (pictured).
Pitch 7, 14a: I sent second go and Tommy sent first go.
Pitch 8, 13d: Tommy sent in three goes and I sent in two. Sharp!
Pitch 9, 13c: I sent second go and Tommy sent first go.

Animals! Even for those who can climb that hard, any one of those pitches would be a day's work all by itself.

oh you ot gangsta.
in supertopo,
like in any good tale,
the facade melts into
the substance without
clear distinction.
kind like f*#k you and i love you
often inherface in the same expression.
patrons weave our collective rhyme,
then we stand back and scratch ourselves,
wondering,
what the f*#k have we created?
who'll believe our story
of lies and truths
whipped together into a sweet
and frothy reality?
who cares.
go jorgenson.
go tommy.

When you are successful you will have given "walk in the Park" a new meaning.
Bon voyage and such!

Nothing to it, but to do it.
Following the trip on FB.
Strong minds, and bodies are better than good luck. But just in case, Good Luck.

It has been pretty damn cold around here the last few days. Hopefully the weather stays dry. Love their determination and can't even fathom their skill.
