Nice work Munge!

The Salathe was my first route on the all mighty Captain and I swore I would never go back up there. I have learned to never say never 20 ascents later.

Please share your story with us.

Glad you did this route, now you've helped me decide what my first El Cap wall must be....

thx all Just got back into town.

The first thing that comes to mind is chilling at the bridge yesterday with Gomz and Tom and the afternoon storm hits, and Tom yells out at the Captain climbers with loads of volume:

"YUR GUNNA DIE"

I never laughed so hard.

TR forthcoming...

still in a haze. still processing what just happened. the TR will probably help.
