pms Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 might be a candidate for a climb that could use its own set of TR chains. Not because of the rating questions, but because it's a good climb that could use some TR chains. This is a good place to debate this suggestion.

Lambone Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 I don't think it needs seperate chains. In fact I had no trouble top-roping this line on the big chains on top of the Tower, just use a long runner. If it's to hard on the rope...then don't. I saw the new two bolt anchor on the otherside, above the 5.9 offwidth corner...this is stupid as well... Just my opinion... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EWolfe Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 Yeah, I don't think it needs it's own chains, either, the TR is fine with a cordolette.It's pumpy down low, and as Mat says, your hanging on your arms to place gear, and it's a bit of a blind placement, as you traverse in from the left to the crack. Definitely not a beginner 5.8 lead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted October 10, 2003 Share Posted October 10, 2003 I fell off the crux of this thing before. I cannot remember who was belaying but I want to say it might have been Charlie GregW or Dan Hughes on belay. My gear held fine but it was precisely placed in what I thought was the best manner. It held. Also I know Dan fell off it once before and was held as well. Fun stuff for drunkards as long as nobody is hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
