Top Rope Top Rope ascent by: cjmore on 2003-04-12 (View Climbing Log)

2 out of 5 stars A climb to remember...

I am not sure of the exact date here maybe someone else can remember.. I Free soloed this route several times before and I was getting ready to do it again... Then some persistent guy whom I don't know, talked me into doing it on his top rope.... (If that is you please contact me)

At the top where the blank crux area is now I pulled more then a square foot chunk of rock off the wall, it was a really good under cling. I instantly came flying off and the rock came raining down on my belay man below. Fortunately we both survived the ordeal... Personally I think this route is harder now then it was before.... I still Free solo but it makes me think twice now, free soloing is not always about how well you climb it also depends on the Rock...
