I'll come back for the redpoint first pitch.



How hard is the move on the upper section?

moreover, how do I avoid pulling a Chriz?

The move isn't to hard.  The upper section is just sustained hard  5.10.

isnt there a 10a-ish move or two to start pitch 3 or 4?  i remember it being a bit sporty with ankle bite potential, but it was only like the 6 or 7 route id ever ropped up on at the time.... so what did i know?

Redline is clearly visible in the background.



We need to finish that upper extension too.

 I'd like to help out with this project...



 Mungie, let's do it up! You can lead that sustained hard 10, 'cause if Mr Mud calls it hard 10, it must be hard...  :D

kewl, let's do it then after Sonora season is over.



i'll throw the pocket aiders in with some adj daisies.



bring some jugs/aider set up, and i'll bring mine.



small pack with aqua and food and clothes



I don't think we need more than a single rope, but we could drag a 8mm tag if we were inclined.



question is how much regular gear, not just draws.  



I'd also like to aid up bill's bad bolts at some point and some others over there.
