Hey Brent,
I replied to your post on this at another climbing site.....
Yeah, I've ran into the canyon and checked it out. The route looks good. It used to, maybe sitll does.... have quite the reputation of being sick. Put up by John Middendorf and the late Xaver Bongard in the 90's.
I heard there was a second ascent by a guy from Salt Lake. I think I remember hearing that his ascent was invalid for some reason. I don't know.... I think he didn't do the last pitch or something (like it matters). Not sure, how accurate the info was, either.
You can find a topo here: http://bigwall.com/radiator.html (for those who didn't know)
What else..... I know the route was pretty futuristic and was put up in proud style over four days (10 lead bolts and seven protection).
Brian McCray and Burt Arend went in to climb the route and climbed a first ascent of Stigmata instead.
Ok, with all that said..... Anyone up for a speed ascent of Radiator?
Brent, you interested?
Cheers, Ammon
(it's only 15 pitches.... only as tall as the Zodiac.. haa haa-right!)
