Hang Dog ascent by: ncclimber on 2004-11-13 (View Climbing Log)

Ascent Note

I only did the first Pitch for now. (Had to pull the fixed line due to bad weather and the upcoming holiday) Very cool did the roof clean with small cams and nuts. Watch the rope drag. My belayer lowered me and I back cleaned the first 30 feet to help with the drag but it was still bad at the top. The belay was 2 rivets and an old bolt. It now has 2 SS bolts their way better. Looking forwad to topping it out later. The first pitch is way cool and worth it even if it's all you do. P2 looks like it's been a while since it's seen any action Very rusty heads.

Ascent Note

This is the hardest single pitch of aid I have done to date. I was gripped when my first to pieces 30' off the deck where a black alien and a thin #1 blade till the end It never lets up. A fixed head blew in the A3+ section sending me for a 15 footer. A blue lowe ball saved it from being a 60-70 footer. I drilled a new bat hook where one had been blown. P1 was cool (in a scary sadist sort of way), will come back in 3 weeks to top it out.

Hang Dog ascent by: ncclimber on 2004-09-11 (View Climbing Log)

Ascent Note

This is mine and Paul's new route that we finished on the Sept. 11th. Hope it will be a route enjoyed for years to come. The name comes from the amount of loose rock on P2. The route is clean now with very little loose rock. P2 is the most serious part of the climb with thin nailing and ledge fall potental. We put rivets to the tree line so this can be topped out even if wet. This is tru aid until you grab the trees at the top. Good luck. A second ascent was done just before thanskgiving. Giving conformation that our ratings are close. Drop me a line if you climb it and tell me what you think.

Ascent Note

Beautiful corner. Had followed on it 2 times before but never had the chance to lead it. Aid climbing was getting in the priority. This was agood change after the valley.

This was My first El Cap route and it was long 2 days fixing to P4, then 6 days climbing to top it out. It tested all of our learned aid climbing skills, was a great first wall.

Red Point ascent by: ncclimber on 2003-12-26 (View Climbing Log)

Ascent Note

P1 Between the first and second bolts is a bat hook ladder of 6 holes. This is a thin seam. My partner led this pitch. We repaced the bolts at the belay with two 3" stainless, better than the 1" selfdrives. I led P2 you jump right into it right off the belay. Bring a cliffhanger hook to get to the first bolt. I settled in when I hit the first bat hook ladder. Two of them the first is 4 holes and the second is 5. Big fall potential, but it is mostly a clean fall. Too icey and cold to go any higher than the top of P2.

Red Point ascent by: ncclimber on 2003-11-30 (View Climbing Log)

Ascent Note

Took Two tries due to getting fixed rope chopped. Two days before the ascent we fixed a rope down the last pitch due to the wet friction topout. Jugged the fixed line after dark chopping the rope free from up to 3 inches of ice the last 100 feet.
