First, I wish to nominate this TR for "Best of CC.com". Secondly, what an outstanding trip and logistics op as well! Now, you climbed Banks out. Full Stop. holy shit, doing more routes a week and a half, than my 9 years driving out there. Congrats, and thanks for giving us Zenith that day. I get bummed out at the end of ice season, You guys were probably depressed after that run was over. Cheers Wayne

Thanks for the amazing report! You said doing a blog would be too much work!? Ha! Million dollar trip report. I had hoped that this climb would get into the minds of people here, it was so deserving, worthy, and has all of the elements of true, and lasting adventure. This is one of only a couple of personal new route/traverses that I felt worthy of proclaiming (too?) loudly. Way to see it fit into your dreams, and play a part in your parties amazing trajectory and story!

Trip: Colorado Classics - Lumpy, Petit Grepon, Casual Route, Yellow Spur Trip Date: 08/10/2018 Trip Report: My sidekick and I survived a great trip to Colorado for my first time. Interesting and classic to say the least. I can see why many good climbers move there. enjoy. https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2018/08/23/colorado-18-rough-day-on-the-diamond/ Gear Notes: tons Approach Notes: fly, but not when the airport is closed for hijacking

Impressive report! Damn.

Wow, great tr! Takes me back to the heyday when David and I did this route ('04?). We had the place-to-ourselves except for the osprey diving for dinner in front of our wide eyes, and the goat that got in between us on the first pitch. What an adventure!!

Gotta give props and a bump to this outstanding climb! https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2018/08/02/fire-on-the-mountain-sloan-pk/

The route is completely updated with anchors and the like, oh and it is as amazing as they say! Report here:https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2018/07/24/mighty-mouse/

Nice work on this route!! The sun hits it at noon in mid July. Did a report on this outstanding climb on my journal

Hated that first "pitch" nice werk crew!

Wow! that does indeed look steep. This is one of only a few routes that have appeared to put up a good fight! Nice go on that climb guys, way to get after it.

Trip: Canadian Rockies - Virtual Reality, Elliots Left Trip Date: 11/25/2017 Trip Report: Starting out to be a decent season so far in the Rockies, but they haven't gotten that deep freeze yet, so the pickins are slim. There are some rarely formed routes that came in well though. Virtual Reality is one that I have been waiting a while to get, and boom the pics on social media sent the crowds up there for it. It wasnt picked out though when we did it Thanksgiving weekend, but we did end up in a footrace for it! Worth the long drive and cough I had for the next few days from burning-out-of-shape-lung-stress. More on personal journal..https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/canada-ice-11-17/ Gear Notes: screws Approach Notes: 1 hour 3 minutes

This is almost inconceivable to imagine.

Yes he is ok, poor communication is all, thanks

Trip: Slesse Traverse is up for grabs - Date: 8/31/2017 Trip Report: I came just short tagging 5/6 summits with my sweetheart. Burly to say the least, yet not in technical terms. Have a look, and good luck. https://waynewallace.wordpress.com/2017/08/30/slesse-5-peak-traverse-v-5-7/
