5 out of 5 stars Always a favorite

Glad to see so many enjoyed this route. Not sure why but it was always just a kick in the pants despite the crummy first 8 feet. The real story of the route name is a bit long to post here, but had to do with a strange grad student at UO in the mid 80s that everyone who lived in Carson Hall called "captain quaalude". "Don't mess with captain quaalude, he might be a chainsaw psycho dork" my friend Jim told me once.
