Bully!Its decent journalism actually!

Enchainment of course , is totally different from a summit ridge traverse.

Cool, Way to tag the chains! I bet your not as afraid of falling as you were. Bungy jumping helped me for a while, now I am back to chicken shit.

Interesting you should single out that climb. Until you do a route like that you have no idea the vast effort it took. It is a micro expedition that should take many attempts and days of planning,not to mention skill. To say some one can just breeze in here and tag that chain belittles the efforts and triumphs we have all face putting the time into these first ascents! I am sure you didnt mean to encite this rant, but go see the show at Feathered Friends and lets talk then. My apologies for being Mr. Sensitive here , Wayne

I talk to his parents, great people!

I heard he is alone with only his cook at basecamp . He will try the schell rt again this time solo.The first time his partner bailedthe second time weather.

PDXers! Working on an October Date with a special guest star- MIKE LAYTON hiself! This could be a rocking show. A pre party and post party will be had as well I am sure we will do this up right!!

Incredible climb and effort Mike And Eric! According to Alex Lowes description you are the best climber in the world !

Got it, yes Mike you have your own page

web page I caught them late too. Sub alien is my favorite song. I bought all their albumns and they are my second favorite band of all time!!

poor Josh has climbed them all ,but he never got to see them!

You crossed over Dragons of Eden near the middle of your route, Looks like a fun line even with the kitty litter, Topo coming?

Nice Jens And Loren I must ask for a picture of the line!

Man I am bummed we could not get it together before Josh left for Colobobo, he just had to get back together with his Uncage the Soul buddies! There is a plan to do a PDX show though Eric

Not work safe? More like not brain safe. My mind is scarred forever.

The pakistanis taught me a great tric, They join arms and sholder side by side toether and become a multi-legged team. Could believe the stuff they crossed!
