lancegranite Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 thin fingers is ok, narrow arrow direct is the reason to climb thin fingers. the 3rd pitch is so fun! just the feeling of joy turning the roof out the 5" crack is as close to heaven as the good lord will let a sinner like me.

The reason noone prolly does it is baecase there is an aid pitch to start it, and the guide says the bolts at the top are crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCramer Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 You can traverse to the upper pitches of NAD very easily from a variety of routes to the right. Thin Fingers for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancegranite Posted September 20, 2003 Share Posted September 20, 2003 the first pitch was freed at 12+. the moves are not very hard..until the last bit, (5.11 to the crux then.. power! you motavated folks can train for this by climbing a vertical wall using foot jibs and the t-nut holes..don't forget to stuff in the RP'S. *** for you folks at home, 5" is five inches. my apologys to my MENSA friends out there!
