Launching Autumn
« on: September 29, 2013, 01:39:55 PM »
JC heading up Bits and Pieces to do the Extension





KC workin’ the steep on B&P before the crux





JC on his first 5.10a onsight – I put the Fall in Autumn a few moves later…I would have made it clean had I not lingered in this section…





We only saw one other pair of climbers all day…





I did Rumplestiltskin on the way out (no pics until I topped out – KC said she was too nervous)…then she and I free soloed The Lamb together to end a nice day.

Although I haven't started at Pinns yet, I got in 23 new routes in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. Fun stuff.

Nice! That sounds like one of my Bamas trips. Any choice pics?

No pics yet - mostly it was just Vicki and I climbing. We did take two friends out for a full day, high on the mountains behind Santa Barbara. Vic took some photos there, but they're not downloaded yet.

Can't wait to see the SB climbing pictures..

Nice work. Stop at 5.10... It's not fun above that.

LOL I've done enough 11A, even at ORG to know it IS fun. Aid, I've done enough of THAT nonsense to know I will NEVER be getting on Zenyatta Mondatta.

Love the thought of filter.

KC asked me today if her ad JC could come along this weekend when I do NIAD. Damn, climbers grow up fast these days.

Did you mean lad?

Regardless - no way I could keep up with you guys on a route like that! Homey can't climb 5.11 crack...

quote from Middendorf: For mere mortals with a long rope, times of 10-12 hours are possible at a reasonable pace by a team of two fit 5.11 crack climbers, averaging 25-30 minutes a pitch.

times of 10 to 12 hours are tough, but I guess I was not really a 5.11 climber
