Thu 2nd Aug 2018 - Rocky Mountain National Park
Longs Peak Area Longs Peak The Diamond D1 Pillar
5.10a 5.10a IV Casual Route - with Lee Cujes Alpine 300m Mega Classic
A long term goal to one day have the skills and opportunity to climb on "The Diamond" at the top of the Rocky Mountains. Longs Peak is 4346m. Everything about a high altitude alpine trad route in the back country is more complex. There are a 100 decisions to be made and most of them have to be accurate or there's going to be trouble! The climbing is actually one of the more predictable parts. The logistics of approach, timing, exit strategy, weather, food, water, clothing, rack, ropes, communication. If your a 5.10 climber, I wouldn't even consider this route, it is sustained and bold and a lot of experience needed to mitigate the risks. The approach up North Gully is highly dangerous and has had multiple fatalities and serious accidents. That is about 5 pitches similclimbed after crossing the permanent ice at the bottom (with or without ice gear) These are not mentioned in the description. We linked pitches 2 &3 and then pitches 5 & 6 cuts down rope work, but meant some spicy run outs with the rack. The climbing is amazing though! The route took mostly small cams and a lot of nuts. Plenty of long runners used. The top pitches were technical and easy to make mistakes, plus highly exposed. The traverse pitch also being complicated to get to correct piton anchors. (there are new rap chains near here) Take some spare webbing to add to anchors if you don't want to trust the multiple faded options that are bundled together. We had a late hail storm come through and wet the rock! Slippery wet granite with lichen and a few easier 5th class pitches were tricky. Multiple ways up have been used to reach the summit via Kiener's Corner. The walk off took about 5 hours back to the trail head. We had no water for many hours. Great Adventure! Leave early.... Say your hail Mary's to the mountain gods.

North-West Face and Blade Ridge
16 13 Wild West Route - with Shannon Keys Trad 250m Good
Wild adventure on one of the wildest places in Tassie. Route finding was hard, i doubt we got the whole route right. The description is very limited, the pitches were long and could wander. We down climbed some things went left, went right or zig zagged. Whatever it took to link safe path through some good and some questionable rock "questing" up the West face. Probably condition dependent, but with no sun in the cracks-seems it was wet on gear placements. Long run outs were frequent and much of it 'no fall' climbing. There is no other record of ascents anywhere, so maybe some or none since 1971! Adventure climbing dudes....
