ivan Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 mike and i tried to do the soviet route discussed above - it hurt alot...and we didn't even get to see the route! Â on the other hand, we did enjoy the whiskey, smokes, cheese-burgers and mozzies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Off_White Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I've heard the Soviet Route on Bonanza has had a couple repeats, word is it's not all that great or solid, so I moved it off my little list of obsessions. Aside from hassling with the boat and bus up to Holden, it's not all that hard to get to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayB Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 South Face of Nooksack Tower Never Never Crack ------ Loren & I's Jberg route  I hope that you won't take this the wrong way, but from my long-distance arm-chair, it looked like your route had objective hazards on par with "Reality Bath," and that for large stretches of the route anyone attempting to climb it would run the risk of getting pulped by a serac fall.  I wasn't there, have never been on the mountain, let alone the route - so am I seriously off base here?

lancegranite Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 What about Burdo's route on Mt. Baring? Ha!

DRep Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I could have sworn that I talked to someone who did a 2 day ascent of the North Norweigan as a second or maybe even a third ascent. Anyways, that route looks effin balsy and like it would be a pain in the ass. What I want to know is if anyone has done a complete ascent of the NN to the summit.

sexual_chocolate Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 there's a sweet little gem of a route called Cosmic Trigger in vantage of all places that hasn't, to my knowledge, seen a repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurthicks Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Macdonald-Mather on Mt. Baker? This was done in 1957 and goes up between the Coleman HW and the North Ridge...under all those seracs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwrts Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 never never crack has seen many attempts. Working that crack is a BITCH and a PITA to rig TR painful jams too.

summerprophet Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 One route that has yet to see a second ascent is "The Mainline" on West Main Wall, Powell River BC.  160' runouts on 5.11 slab, Combined with A4 on filed down RP's underneath house sized deathblocks.  Grade VI 5.11, A4+ F.A. Colin Dione, Rob Richards 1993  Incidently, if someone wants to head up there.. .I can do the aid if you can do the slab.  http://www.surfingvancouverisland.com/climb/eldred-westmainwall.htm   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â SC- have you tried it? ...on lead or TR? Â side note: Bondage and Enema are very fun and thought provoking nearby routes. Â tried it a few times. v7'ish (for me) boulder problem (i seem unable to use the finger crack as a jam), into what seems like 5.12 crack climbing. we just bouldered our way up through the start, protecting as we went. yeah kinda hard to protect, and a toprope would be really hard cuz of the steepness. Â ben g. is pretty psyched on the line, and has worked it out. i imagine he'll be out there soon to redpoint, along with others perhaps.

G-spotter Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 house sized deathblocks. Â Â Gee i wonder WHY it hasn't had a second ascent. Â Some routes don't get 2nd ascents because they are too hard. Some routes don't get 2nds because they aren't worth repeating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
