a ton of anti-reality upon
my tongue,
i broke into jail and
another rope solo goal
surrenders to history,
surrealistic pillar, direct. 5.10a.
i've bailed twice on this thing,
both times at the committing
traverse to gain the beautiful overhanging
hands.
i sold all my beliefs for one day
and thus unburdened i sent this
fun.
i charged admssion
but no won showed
so im poor again
kids have some fun on me,
cheers peers.

I love that pitch, probably the best single pitch I have climbed there. You really ran it out, isn't there a bolt on that hand traverse? Maybe my mind is mistaken...

Good one!
Your system helped me, and SP... get aquainted!... Awhile back.
Noticed your young one's set up...
Fashioned a few of those myself.
Say, no offence n' all but, what if she went upside down?
Happened to my boy once, and scared me...
Into getting a body harness for him.
Cheers!
Thanks for your TR.
Andy.

jebus my wife was at the base with us
so i tamed the circus to just shy of respectable....
plus,
the kids and all...
yes, sac. the youngin's harnasses are in the mail.
this was make up play,
and im glad they didn't flip over.
i was belaying them tight so
no real possibility of them head diving.

Harnesses are definitely in order. And helmets. And a grigri for when daddy is drinking.
As for the climbing, a sweet send.
I had an odd experience on that climb once. DT and I were Drinking in the parking lot before heading up to do the route. I set off on the lead. I was doing well except that, when I was resting right before the crux, I just blacked out and fell off. I awoke mid fall and caught myself on the rope as it was clipped above to a piece. I pulled back on and sent the climb...scared and excited all in one.....
