Heard some rumblings through the grapevine that Mike sent City Park last week.

Midget ascents are aid.

Will you are correct.

Rad! way to go Mike-rrrrrooooo!

Nice: pics?

best part is it was a true redpoint...significantly harder than all of the previous ascents.

Nice job man!

Ah Mike's just avoiding the one route he fears...the one he hears calling to him in the night..whispering his name....the Bobcat Cringe....which is itself merely a warmup for the greatest unclimbed crack in Washington.... Bobcat Reality!

sweet!

wow. impressive...did he work on it for a while, or was it an onsite?

A couple years ago Mike and I found a Bavarian Reality in Leavenworth. Doubt its been climbed either.

I just tried a Spanish Reality this past weekend. Good thing is that its only a roof "boulder" reality problem.

wow...that would have been something to watch!!! Was the gear pre-placed? <never mind, read Rumrs post above>

Awesome. Wish I could have watched it in a lawn chair drinking a beer.

mike only rehearsed on tr about 20 times or so, never was able to do it clean. fired it 1st go last thursday. there are pics but mike is now a corperate whore so you all will have to wait to see them.

i was not there to see it either.

darryl, mike wished he didnt have to go to the valley or to pakistan this summer so he could stay at index...what a rough life. i would say look for him back at index this fall to crush.

What will a guy do to avoid hard climbs!

who is he whoring for? will we have to wait to see the pics in the next patagonia catalogue?

damn, this is up there with any of the accomplishments this board has seen.

Rad. Way to do it in good style.

I wonder of Micro found the route to be vibrating with energy. I hope he at least followed nature's rules and joined nature in his ascent.


Way to be bitchin Mike

i know he drank a bunch of beer afterwards.

Good. Now he can wipe his chalk graffiti off the route.

Isn't climbing pin scars aid?

No its 5.13+, [edit].

This aint the spray zone. I think TT is just being a smart alec.

he told me only .13, thought it was easier then the route he put up in the valley last fall.

its seen very few repeats.
