bigwallben Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 Actually, I think it's up to 5 who've lead it, right? Todd Skinner Hugh Herr Alan Watts (he didn't send, but he still lead it) Mikey (edited for brain fart) Ben G.  I've never attempted to Lead City park; nor have ever claimed to. Props to all who could endure the pain. And props to Drew Ruana who will outclimb us all.  Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olyclimber Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Second Ascent not only sponsors CC.com for you on a regular basis, they are throwing down for this event. They are kicking in a Gregory pack, a mammut rope, and limited edition Petzl Meteor helmet...all for the raffle for the WCC Index Fund. Â Come to Sausage Fest and get a raffle ticket or 10!
