billcoe Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Mark Cartier and his friend Kip grabbed the first go on the rehabilitated Flying Circus. Stout business, but all there to be done... Â I bet that sissy didn't do the sit-start to reasonable richard. Probably should go back and do it again so he can say he climbed it. Â I saw them last week, I think he might have done that one.

I've been thinking about heading there for a long time. I have the Dolomite guide book at home...and still have my empty my dreams....sigh...  Sounds like you're having just way too much fun. I want to see that TR Jesse, get lots of good pics eh? _________________________________________________________________  JH: rolled up it. Still seemed physical, I think that's cause I'm old and weak in the upper body. But we did YW afterwards and that felt easy and could have done some more too but we both had family obligations, my bro and his wife were in town and Ujhans Aunt had come into town as well.     Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adventureboy Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 definately took the whip on Sagitarius long in the 'dex at the roof prolly close to 15+ feet on a pin that was pounded straight up and came out okay with all my limbs intact. though when i do clip a pin in a situation where it may take a fall or anytime for that matter i try to give it a good jerk and listen for funky hollow sound or marked movement pins a plus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
