Cara Dunahoo cruises into the shade on Shadow, a thin classic slab climb. Originally said to be 5.7, Royal Robbins said... "That's no 5.7..." It was one of the original aid ladders on the Mt. Now it has 5 bolts in 80 feet.

Setting up a hand line for my second between some new anchors. There must be a dozen new bolts up there. It's like a metal jungle.

If you see this guy on the rock, go the other way. His abysmal singing will make your ears bleed and your dog howl. Johnny being a goof rapping down off of Lycra
