Dechristo Posted July 25, 2007 Posted July 25, 2007 It was 43 minutes I believe bottom to top with a short gym rope. They simul climbed the entire thing and slogged down the back side. I'd have to ask my buddy again if that was his time, but I'm pretty sure it was. Bottom as in bottom of route or from the car? Yeah, they started from the car with a short gym rope. Quote
David Yount Posted July 26, 2007 Author Posted July 26, 2007 I declined for a few reasons. He had no beta and I heard the middle was a difficult navigation; it was not appealing to me to attempt a speed record on this route unless I was mostly certain we could complete the event. He wanted to simulclimb many pitches and I didn't trust him like that. In general he was a much bigger barker than his actual bite and I didn't want to donate one of my recreation days to his half-baked plan. Yes, eventually I got on the route. First attempt got lost in pitches 15 and 16. Second attempt stopped ascending at pitch 15 because it was getting dark anyways; as well, only brought one rope so I knew we would be descending by traversing east (right) into the vertical jungle and then slinging trees every 80 feet, all the way down........ Subsequently I was successful. Originally Posted By: Idea_Guy Buddy of mine tried to get me to join him several years ago.... for a speed attempt. I declined. Why did you decline? Did you ever get on the route to just climb it? Quote
