That was my first wall, climbed back in the early 1980s. Spent the night on Dinner Ledge and topped out the next day. Really fun climb.
Mad respect for doing it back in the 80s! So cool. Still climb today?
I climbed the South Face in1977 after graduating from high school. We did the same thing bivi at Dinner ledge top out the next day only issue was we ran out of water and it was hot! I was somewhat delirious once on the valley floor.
That guy you ran into is in how not 2’s big wall climbing series
This brought back so many memories of my first wall experience. I did the supertopo recommended 2 day (Fix the pitches above dinner ledge). I took a whipper shortly after exiting the Kor roof. Thanks for posting this.
Always enjoy watching you guys tidy up on your way up.
someone's gotta do it, right?
that was stopper was hilarious. nicely done
Thats Jeremiah from Duluth! @9:15
Had so sweet Acromania aid ladders back in the day. Added spreaders on the steps. Loved those things.
So rad! Love watching these videos. Keep em coming. While I’m not able to climb as much as I like right now, watching someone else crush keeps my stoke high.
How do you like the petzl daisies over the yates? Also did you re thread them?
We do live in the country of milk and honey! I remember having to save up for a piece and now people are giving them away for free! I have a crate full of carabiners just from climbing the moderate routes on Mondays. Plenty of free cams too. Putting a cam deeper in granite cracks don't make it any stronger and waggling a cam side to side when taking it out only walks it deeper in until you get it stuck. There, a $80 lesson for free! 🤪
we used to mark such equipment with black tape
seriously. Doing classic climbs on Mondays would be a perfect way to get a full rack!
@@GravityLabz True that, just borrow somebody's and give them back as you get the booty.
Last time I was climbing in Yosemite someone left a #1 cammed in the side at the base. One of my buddies was digging for a nut tool when my other buddy uncammed it from the wall and pulled it out saying "Thanks! I need one of these!" We both laughed as our first instinct was that it got welded to the side. Nope, someone just left it there for our pickings.
hey i spotted a kong panic in your kit. always assumed this was more of a sport piece of gear? care to explain how youd use in trad/aid? super curious! as always - super fun content!
Sweet fast socks. I'm going to start calling my socks like that fast socks too.
lol jeremiah sighting!
Haha classic Jeremiah sighting
Please, come in the Mont Blanc. There you have incredibly beautiful granite multi pitch routes ! Especially the Rebuffat-Baquet route on the Aiguille du Midi 😍
Thanks for sharing! What cord are you using on the evolv adjust?
It looks like possible way for a solo climber without any protection gear such as ropes. How hard was this in reality if i may ask?
3:52 that is something I hope I never ever have to do. I know modern ropes are supposed to be somewhat resistant to abrasion, but that would drain the blood from my face
Thought the same, f that noise.
Do y'all self belay for the short fixing or just ride the big loop until your partner shows up?
Totally depends on the pitch difficulty, fall potential, and area below. If it we are not likely to fall and it is a clear zone below, let the loop fly free!
5a French grade. Man, I would love to try this route.
climbing usually looks easier than it is but this shit looks like 6c
… All Free it’s 5.13b/8a …..
What’s the raining without aid?
are the bolts already in the wall?
Is the climb way harder than 5.8 without aid like those ladders?
It’s free at 5.13b/8a. The thin cracks above the roof 5.10 - 12a
I would pay for the unedited footage for this route.
So tasty! Love it!
Is that Jeremiah from hownot2?!?
This was my first In-A-Day wall!
Hell yeah! It's a great first wall of any type!
What’s the name of these pants
Ik they are Arc’teryx but like the model
LOL, "A mandatory 5.7 move"...
Haha I'm glad somebody caught that one!
Not gonna lie, I aided that move when I climbed it. I was a lil scared
Hmmm Royal Arches might be easier
They totally forgot to take the nut out
Didn't know 10 pitches classed as a big wall 😂😂
LOL. We don't make the rules, we just try to break them.
It's a big wall if you are as bad as I am.
Also if you are having as much type 2 fun as I am
It has nothing to do with how many pitches it is but how long most parties take on route. Most parties spend a night, therefore it is a grade V wall, aka a big wall.
@@RickyHarline so it's normal to take 2 days to climb 10 pitches in the US? This has really tarnished the image I have of your guys "big walling"
@@dannygrout92 depends on the pitches. Royal arches is 15 pitches and is a grade IV (ie it is expected to take all day but only one day) but there are grade Vs that are only 10-12 pitches, yes.
Too many commercials here! I’m out!
