I think it is an awesome and amazing accomplishment, and definitely warrants more excitement than the 3500th climb of a dog route. Very cool and it is great to see people pushing boundaries and exploring.
From Jacob's Facebook: "But also so stoked I don't ever have to go back up there again...".
Makes me think the Jason is right. Route just needs some traffic now! LOL
When you said "Fred", I was a little confused if this was an old TR. I know Beckey isn't up to something like these days, though I'm sure in his mind he is there.
I didn't know that about mtn goats being antelope but i see from the internetz that you didn't just make that shit up.
so may be it is good, some day i will try.
Or is it time to go goat hunting in the Olys:

JasonG is now moderator! Welcome to the team Jason!
As many of you know, Jason was already helping keep this rusty bucket afloat, so now its just official.
He will be contributing as he as able and when he can to help run the site.
Funny the only thing you miss with this is time. Like the more time you spend there, the better. But if this is all the time you had to do it, then bravo. I probably spent more time than this trying to clean the basement on a given weekend.
Wow. Sorry for the site being such ass. It is due an upgrade to totally different software which will make everything infinitely better and easier...but due to things beyond our control its just taking WAY longer then we expected. Thank you for persevering and sharing your TR, which is a pretty fucking kick ass TR btw.
What is next?
yeah raining ash over Seattle and Portland isn't the norm....or maybe it is the new norm. Even out on the Olympic Peninsula, Forks area this weekend it seemed like a tinderbox...normally a soggy place in Sept.
