caleb ng Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) Trip: Liberty Bell - Liberty Crack (Failure - big butt kick) Date: 6/18/2010 Trip Report: Hi cascade climbers. Myself (Caleb Ng) and my Bud, Mike Yonkers Tried for liberty crack on thurs june 18.... we did the first three aid pitches, (blew a bashie, and didn't have a hook owww yah!!!) were going to do the crack in a day but during the 4th pitch we got snowed on making life a bit difficult resulting in a hasty retreat. it was terribly hard to have been on the start of the 4th pitch, seen the crack and ready to go free, but turned around by weather. If anyone does the crack this year, would you give us a call at 206 962 1139. We'd like to jug your first three lines for some beer and your chance to meet the two friendliest climbers in the PNW! otherwise, aiding again just seems a bit tedious Later climbers!

fenderfour Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 It took me three tries before I finally got that route. Buy a hook and keep at it. More aid climbing = faster aid climbing = more fun. Part of climbing this route is dealing with the logistics of aid down low and free climbing up top. Besides, I'm betting you will find a couple more places that you will want to aid up higher.
