Great climbs w/o second ascent

[Cpt.Caveman]

I am not.

Voodoo Project VI 5.10 A4, kinda unfinished too from what I understand...

[Cpt.Caveman]

Dear bigwalling,

 

Just to clarify - I am not bashing on any routes..

 

I don't know much about Voodoo Project. I probably don't want to try it either.

Are you talking that one on Witch Doctor Wall (Exfoliation Dome)? That was Yos and dbb's project. I thought he finished it and posted a trip report.

[bigwalling]

I think the name must be wrong. This is Blair's and team route on North Norwiegn Butress. I think it is a V name though. It's in one of the recent years of AAJ. Someone look it up. IT sounds pretty proud too me.

[bigwalling]

On another note, whatever happened to Yos? I did my first multipitch with him. First guy I ever climbed with besides myself.

Anyone know where Dragonfly actually goes?

 

[Off_White]

As I understand it, Dragonfly takes in the obvious white sunlit headwall along the sun/shade line in your photo. There's a roof in there somewhere. Above that section it takes the ridge for lots of enjoyable moderate climbing. Dunno about the start, I scanned it a couple years ago, looked like there was something ledgy that you'd head right on from the bottom of the NE Face. I provided a rasta hiking boost for Yoder and McGowan on their way out after the FA, and they were positively giddy about the whole route, I think it's long overdue for a repeat.

it starts to the right of dragons of eden. aparently they share the same ledge (75'apart from each other) which is 6-8pitches from the talus.

[lancegranite]

You strong types, that voodoo thang looks like there is quite a bit of aid that may be eliminated.

 

Note to FA team: thanks for the cool TR and all your hard work!

it starts to the right of dragons of eden.

 

What in the hell is Dragons of Eden??

[lancegranite]

What Great (or infamous) routes recently saw Second Ascents other than Gay-ton's climb of Inspiration?

 

a little ole climb called the Waddington Traverse, Gato Negro etc.

[MCash]

Interesting that Wayne doesn't mention the Complete Northwest Ridge on Logan. Has someone else done that thing?

[hanman]

Speaking of Witch Dr Wall, anyone know if Solaris has seen second ascent?

[layton]

the fire near back of beyond buttress should be out by now, someone should go have a great time on it this w/e.

 

p.s. I will not shut up until someone does it. along with Stellar Eclipse. Someone go give Off White his props.

[Cpt.Caveman]

I love me. My climb is better than all others. Everyone look at me.

I dont expect that route will ever be repeated.

 

Dberdink, Dragons goes up the white headwall on the NE buttress left of Dragon fly.

 

Layton, your roomate and I intend to go for back of beyond

[layton]

has the north face central buttress on DAvis peak had a 2nd acent? or do you have to put up a new route if you go back in there?

[layton]

Wayne and Lane, if you guys find a dead crack whore wrapped in a plastic tarp up there....uhmmm...she was like that when we got there.

[lunger]

never mind--damn foo'.

What about Burdo's route on Mt. Baring?

[Szyjakowski]

[TimL]

I know of at least one party that climbed the route on SEWS if not a couple more.
