Red Point ascent by:
Gordy gets the FA on the third pitch of Centerfold 5.9
Sweet long pitch,that makes your feet hurt after the first two pitches.My buddy lead pitch one and two and let me get the FA on pitch three,since I already had the FA on pitch one and two from a couple weeks before the third pitch was done.The third pitch is slab friction ,with a nice stemy corner at the finish,185 ft. 5.9.This was my first three pitch FA.Super sick!
