There. Legit climbing content. My daughter may have been the first human to scamper up this crack. Some last summer? Or spring break? I can't keep it straight.

Direct Aid
a 4-pt haiku
three and a half days
stealing the route from cooper
was "grand theft half dome"
it took some "fi-fis"
two hundred ninety-five "pins"
one pitch took six "rurps"
"sterling aid climbing"
that is what Steve Roper wrote
three and a half days!
nineteen sixty-three
has it not been climbed "all free?"
uh...Mister Ondra...

I know that a lot of stuff here is off topic. I like some of the off topic threads.
If you have an actual climbing question, ask it. There is a boat load of experience here. A lot of old farts hang out here. It hurts in the sense of not being cutting edge, but if you want to know about any route on Earth, you can probably find someone who has done it here. Same for technique.
It is kind of a mixed bag.

This one on the other hand not delicate, not choss
New favorite feature in climbing. Never realized that a trad climber hasn't lived until climbing a splitter along an exposed arete.

A shot from my last successful climb last year. You know it's a good day when you just do and don't over think it. Coup de Grace at Tahquitz, connecting up the last 2 pitches of 5.9.

Valley grade PMF, not to be confused with DNF. Was SC really that bad? Loose? Dirty?

launching into the '"10c" OW, which felt way way better to me than did the "10a" thin hands section on p1. Oh yeah, the MP rumor about the drilled-out stuck knee debacle on p2 appeared to be validated by a concentration of many oblique shallow drill scars at the start of the 4.5" section. I can just see the rescue crew, "alright, I'ma have to step off your knee, ok kid"
