cfire Posted September 12, 2011 Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) Trip: Liberty Bell - Liberty Crack Date: 9/11/2011 Trip Report: John and I climbed Liberty Crack yesterday. Seemed like a properly named route to climb on 9/11. My thoughts were with the many lost, especially the 343 bothers in the fire service. Also a time on the summit to remember friends lost in the past few years. The climb was straight forward. I didn't expect such good quality climbing throughout. Great route and great fun. Only one other party on the route, and we managed to get by them a few pitches from the top. The crux of the route was getting to the wall. Fun chimney climbing up the moat on kitty litter was character building. The moat from hell. The party ahead jugging after fixing the day before. Jugging after just clearing the Lituanian Lip Twilight on the summit. Beautiful evening. Lots of smoke down valley In memory of my friend FF Terence Goldberg, lost in the line of duty, and all those lost on 9/11. Approach Notes: Still snow at the base!?!?

Trent Posted September 15, 2011 Posted September 15, 2011 Nice climb Chris! I’m jealous; I only get to plan future climbs for the next two months, although I am getting some good views of a few 20000 footers! Quote
