G-spotter Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I had a friend once tell me that people commonly die every winter freesoloing in Joshua Tree and yet it never makes it further than the local news down there. Â Â Bill, if a friend told you that eating your own shit was nutritious, would you do it? Â EDIT: you probably would. You are that gullible.

JosephH Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) It's a serious consideration Mark, especially since the only other climber to do that very route free solo later died free soloing. You ever heard of Charlie Fowler? Â You and Mark must be high. Charlie didn't free solo 'that' route.

You ever heard of Charlie Fowler? Â You and Mark must be high. Charlie didn't free solo 'that' route. Â My bad. Google search gave me this, which is obviously misleading: Â Charlie Fowler made the first free solo of the Diamond, soloing the Integral Route, ... and then on-sight soloed Pervertical Sanctuary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choada_Boy Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 I wonder how many people have soloed that route without feeling the need to inform the whole world of their "accomplishment". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billcoe Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Charlie didn't free solo 'that' route. Â Yup, great story, Fowler was so unassuming on that stuff. I think it originally had another name, and when Charlie freesoloed it, they all changed the name to the "Casual" route.. at like 5.10 which at the time was a hard grade. Â I think he did the DNB in Yosemite in a similar, non-chestbeating manner. Just casually replied to someone who asked what he had climbed that day....

G-spotter Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Charlie aid soloed some A4 route on that face in winter too... and probably a bunch of other routes that I don't remember hearing about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
