Yesterday Brandon Thau and friend from California climbed the Daddy in 6 hours, car to car in 12.5 hours. In his email he said route was "excellent, very enjoyable". They freed the A-0 part at 5.11-.

 

Congratulation guys. Looking forward to a trip report.

Hey Dan, good to hear from you.

 

I was sure hoping to give that pitch a try before someone else got to it, but the route seems to have jumped up in public notice! You know, in all the times we went up there last year I never was on lead for that pitch!

 

Also, I think you will like the final pitch we put on it. I remember how horrified you were when I clambered up the mess over by the umbrella tree, finishing on its very roots. Now it goes straight up that steep 10-foot wall on good finger cracks, with plenty of pro. People seem to like the last two pitches. Joy!
