You snuck in and did an onsight today?
Sounds like a hairy lead with only one bolt.
How many do you have left to tick off?

I have trouble calling an ascent of this type of route an "onsight." I guess it was an onsight, which was a better result than a 60 foot groundfall. But the term seems to apply better to sport routes.

Six routes left.

Sorry for the thread drift Adam.

No, six more until I've done every route at Pinns that is easier than 5.10. Then (actually next season whether I've gotten all six or not) I'm going to get back to picking off some of the tens and elevens that I haven't done yet. Like Foreplay. Next season I won't have just spent all summer doing guidebook research and I can try to be strong at the start of Pinns season.

Sounds like Adam is going to hold me to it (please do!). Yes, right after we do the conditioning tour.

Maybe the conditioning tour should start with Foreplay.

I'll show up to the Rendezvuuuz, if I can get a belay on Terranean, and get some laps on Foreplay and POD. Just sayin.

No, that ain't gonna happen.

Tell you what: you do "Brad's Conditioning Tour" with me, and, later in the season, I'll do "Adam's Conditioning Tour" (more commonly known as Foreplay) with you. We could also start even earlier, in October, with "Tom's Conditioning Tour," which will kick both our asses: come hang at Salsa's B&B for a few days and we'll do some of Addison's two and three star routes in The Lost World (up to 5.13b - I'll belay you on those).

That sounds to me like a win-win-win.

Brad, sounds like a deal. I really need to checkout some Sonora stuff especially Lost World. I might have to start going to Jailhouse when I get back as my fitness is way up.

Chris and I are heading back to Oliana today to work on our projects. We both had breakthroughs over the last few days. I've fallen 5 times at a tricky traverse after 70 feet of tricky 5.12+. Today I plan on making it to the big jug at the end of the traverse and then style the last 40 feet of 5.12- terrain. I haven't been so obsessed with something like this in so long. Should make Ranger Bolts feel a little easier when I return. It's been a journey to project something so close to my limit for over a month and fall 20+ times.

Chris just got back from the USA and he looks refreshed. I wouldn't be surprised if he sends La Dura Dura today.
