Trip Report:

Climbed the Tooth Saturday. Attempted to avoid the rope orgy that occured..... wow. Simply had to share this picture.

 

1 team rapping. 1 fixed line being prussiked by multiple people. 2 separate teams with lead ropes, all on the same pitch and crack.

Peter, get your knife.

 

What?

You have to do something for me.

 

Cut me loose.

 

One cam can't hold us all.

 

You have to cut me loose...

 

...or else I'll pull everybody down. Everybody will die!

The main problem was the Mazamas putting up fixed lines for a large group to prussic and clogging the route big time. This lead to a breakdown of the normal wait your turn or communicate with the other team about passing procedure as a few groups (including my group that took an alternate to pitch one climbers right) tried to climb variations to get around them.
