boonecounty Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Gonna be rolling on my way back to Missouri through the colorado front range. Looking for a partner to do Pervertical Sanctuary and the Obelisk in a day. Climb up PS and rap, climb Obelisk and rap. No summit I have already been there enough. Anyone interested let me know. I know the approach, and rap, and have been on the diamond a few times. I am willing to lead all pitches if my partner doesn't want to lead. call me or pm me 760-920-3441 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_warfield Posted August 5, 2003 Share Posted August 5, 2003 Sounds like a big project and great fun on an awesome wall. Good luck finding a partner and hope for no lightning on your big day. You'll be 40% of the way to the exploits of Topher Donahue and Tommy Caldwell, who did 5 Diamond routes in a day last month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabertooth Posted August 6, 2003 Share Posted August 6, 2003 I thought the season on the Diamond was suppose to be really late this year, because of the high snowfall this spring. Has the wall seen any ascents yet this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_warfield Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 They had that big snow in March so the high peaks have been slow to clear. The Diamond got a later start than normal but things are picking up on the drier routes, with most climbers opting to rappel rather than top out.
