Post by: Brad Young on July 07, 2014, 06:04:00 PM: It was a great weekend (although a little hot).

I didn't take any photos of the climbing. But we started the weekend Thursday evening by going up to Sonora Pass with fresh sandwiches for PCT through-hikers (we were trail angels). We took Cassy and Serene Gruenther with us. We had a great time (we did find through-hikers who were incredulous and so happy to get fresh - FRESH - sandwiches after having just passed the 1,000 mile mark that day).

We had a great time. And we are so looking forward to having Cassy, and 1 1/2 year old Serene spend more time with us (and Tricia and Serene had a great time together, which will make it easier to get Serene used to camping and hiking).

From the pic of you in that chimney, the chin/tailbone technique can be employed in lieu of pants.

Sorry I missed it.

Post by: F4? on July 08, 2014, 10:01:44 PM: But a 70m rope weighs so much....why not put a couple belay bolts in for a 50m rope.

seriously!

Some folks are OW noobs... pants are required for those folks to keep the cracks pristine for us pantless ODubers.
