Walleye,

Is that Via Sin Agua - FA 1978 or another line?

Oakland: what's not to love?

From a climbing punter who has a big interest in Yos history: thanks Ed! Wish I could snap my fingers and have a book of write-ups on all of those FA's, most of which I've only heard of in passing, if at all.

As one example:
Dark Star 5.10 A5 VI FA 1999 Jim Bridwell Giovani Groaz

Where/what the hell is this? Who amongst us wouldn't pay good dough to be able to read the lurid details of these ascents.

Sine qua non.

My best route.

Now that I have done it, it can never be repeated.

Thanks for the Pacemaker clarification Lars,

Apologies to Clance for the misreportage; I'm no historian, even if/when I was there, haha. Now I recall it was Corbett who I chatted with as we made our way across Mammoth Terrace. (They were perhaps entertaining only moderate drinking, I embelish hehe.) I was more than likely around when Clance did the second ascent of Pacemaker and clearly blurred the lines with my memory of the different teams. "Weenis" as we refer to, was not Pete (if you mean Chesko), but a guy named Shawn.

Hey Lars,

Maybe Chuck would post up a story about the second ascent of Pacemaker? Sounds like a good one. He's posted here before right?

This thread could use more first hand reportage, as Ed noted. As I think about it, it seems we don't get that much first person tell from early ascents of wall routes done back then.

Cheers,
Roy

Roy-

Clance actually got paid to write up the second ascent of Pacemaker in an issue of Climbing magazine. I'm sure he has it framed, I'll find out what issue.

The Weenis I was referring to was Pete[r] Weenis Chesko [sp?] who I understand is a really fine jeweler now. Just goes to show that you really can make diamonds out of coal.

Best

Yes,
Chesko & I climbed V Notch in the Palisades together way back when. He posted here for a while, so we emailed and caught up a bit.

Hey Mussy,
Tell us a story won't you?

I know you talked about Bad Sign a while back; was that a full blown TR you can link us to?
(early, ...er, 2nd ascent maybe?)
Hook us up man!

An update on the aid climbs.
I went back and made the database more consistent in reporting the "FA rating" separate from the "modern rating" (the one that shows up in the most recent guide books) and the "FFA rating." Most of these I extracted from Roper's 1971 guide. However, there are still climbs there that have the "FFA rating" only, and I suspect there was no formal YDS rating of some of these climbs, being done in the time before the uniform ratings were applied. There aren't many of them, though, about 54 climbs, 12% of all documented "Aid Climbs."

I haven't released the newest spread sheet yet (I'll post when I get it ready), I've corrected a few names, etc, and I've added references to the American Alpine Journal (AAJ) as I searched for information on poorly reported climbs (see list below). Some of you could actually help with dates, etc... but I understand memory lapse at old age...

Included here, the new table of frequency of "Graded" aid climbs by 5 year period. And a plot that shows how this is build up.

Not an elegant table, but STForum doesn't allow for horizontal spacing formats (e.g. tabs):

year, all, all "Graded", VI, V, IV, I,II,III, III, II, I
up to 1935, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
1936 to 1940, 3, 3, 0, 0, 0, 3, 0, 1, 2
1941 to 1945, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0
1946 to 1950, 10, 8, 0, 1, 1, 6, 3, 1, 2
1951 to1955, 12, 12, 0, 1, 3, 8, 4, 3, 1
1956 to 1960, 42, 35, 3, 5, 8, 19, 11, 6, 2
1961 to 1965, 81, 72, 8, 14, 15, 35, 14, 16, 5
1966 to 1970, 49, 44, 7, 16, 6, 15, 9, 6, 0
1971 to 1975, 33, 25, 19, 5, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0
1976 to 1980, 27, 20, 19, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
1981 to 1985, 42, 31, 22, 9, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
1986 to 1990, 50, 44, 36, 8, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
1991 to 1995, 25, 24, 20, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
1996 to 2000, 25, 25, 20, 3, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0
2001 to 2005, 11, 11, 9, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0

Of 412 aid climbs, 355 have "Grades", here's a simple table:

all; 413
all "Graded;" 355
VI; 163
V; 69
IV; 35
I, II, III, 88
III; 43
II; 33
I; 12

Not much has changed on the plot, more information (maybe too much) but probably a better time distributed representation. The major conclusions are the same.

Roy et al-

Chuck Clance has an article in Climbing #260 October '07 describing his epic on the second ascent of Pacemaker. Bad weather no food the works. Not quite the epic that Bosque, Middendorf, and Corbett had on the South Face of Half Dome, but entertaining nonetheless.

Ed - let me know if you want some help with the project. Have a pretty vast library to draw from. Maybe I could help with route references from climbing mags? Will help however you can use it, just let me know.

steelmnky,
the AAJ is online, so I can actually access that... but I don't have a complete set of Climbing, or Rock & Ice or Mountain, or Summit. If I had those references I'd add them in a "Journals" column in the database.

Also, some of the missing route info, and actually missing routes, are in the rags, so that information would add to the database.

I wouldn't ask you to do it, I become obsessed beyond reason when I am in that mode, but if you provided the information I'd add it to the spread sheet!

Ed I hear ya. Totally your project. Just offering whatever I can help with. It's a huge job. I have most of the mags including Climbing, R&I, Mountain, Summit and Off Belay.

If you get me the latest spreadsheet (add the appropriate column), we can go from there. Maybe think about a format you want to use (eg. Magazine, Issue #, Page # ) or something so it will be right when I put it in.

steelmnky - no problem with everyone working on it! I don't consider it "my" project as it is the work of a lot of people, the climbers, the guidebook writers, you all looking at it and sending comments in...
...I just wouldn't wish on you the same sort of mania that visits me when I'm working on it!

Here are two plots. The number of climbs per decade in four categories: All, Aid FAs, FFAs, and FAs that were initially "free".


the decade of the 70s was the first one where the majority of the FAs were put up free with no aid.

EDIT: note that the "decade" labels mark the upper end of the decade...

Here's another way of looking at it, the fraction of the three catagories ("all" is removed, but I could put "unknown" there...)

The rise and fall of Aid FA's is evident, the decade of the 60s being the largest aid FA decade so far.

Hey Steelmnkey,

Per Kevin's suggestion on the freeclimbing evolution, perhaps you'd be interested in scanning a couple articles to extend the big wall free trajectory beyond what I posted about Hudon & Jones from Mountain Magazine?

Maybe check these for some pertinent articles:
(not sure if feature articles complemented the cover shots)

The first: Climbing #88, Skinner Piana/Salathe
The second: Climbing #110, Huber Bros on Salathe
Also, the Clance/Pacemaker item noted by Lars would be suave...

I had these issues, but tossed them prior to my Supertopo tenure...

(I've been scanning at 700 wide and about 225KB per page, to get good print read)
