Yosemite Valley Tenaya Canyon Mt Watkins
5.10b C2+ 5.9 A2 VI South Face Route - with Stephen Varney Aid 770m Very Good
Paul Frothy Thomson
My 1st bigwall. Done over 3 days. 2 hour approach hike, 300m of jumaaring fixed ropes to get to the climb, 900m of climbing over 19 pitches, and a 4 hour descent. Absolutely epic and physically taxing. The climbing is hard at the grade, loose, untraffic'd and sketchy, with moments of brilliance. I freed what I could up to 5.10c then aided the rest. Bivvied on a 1m wide rock ledge next to the void. Finished the last pitches in the dark, and back to the car at 0200hrs. Mega and masochistic.
