JasonG Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 "The two left Canmore in the early hours of Nov. 18 and retuned on Nov. 19. They spent just under 30 hours car-to-car climbing the famous 1987 alpine route, which was first climbed by Barry Blanchard, Peter Arbic and Ward Robinson. The route was freed by by Jon Walsh and Jonny Simms in 2008 at M7. The direct was climbed by Raphael Slawinski, Dana Ruddy and Eammon Walsh in 2009. The first one-day ascent and one-day free ascent of the original route was by Josh Wharton and Chris Alstrin in 2012, they climbed the route in 15.5 hours base to summit. Â Leclerc and Lavigne took advantage of the good early season conditions, little snow and cold nights. Their ascent is the eighth or ninth of the original route." Â Cool!
