Comments: For the record, I bolted and did the FA of this route in 1994. Additional bolts were added after by some unknown party.

Comments: I attended MMA between 78'-82' and did an FA toprope of the smooth scooped out face on the left calling it "Behind the Green Door". I guessed it was 5.10 back then in the EB era. Did several other routes n this face but the scooped out smooth face was the best.

Comments: There are several variations of this route that we used to do in the mid 1980s. This was the longest and I think I did the FA of this variation. The older route was called Snakeskin Suit and went straight up.

Comments: I did the FA of this route as a toprope in 1987. The piton must have been placed after that as I dont remember any piton there at the time. I did the route on Halloween day, thats where the name came from.

Comments: As Andrew and Joe noted, I did the First Ascent, and Andrew did the second. Nobody else did it for a long time after that including Whitey. I have some early footage of Andrew and I doing early ascents of the Try Again I will upload to Youtube soon. Quality is not great but we filmed it shortly after first doing the problem in 1985 if I remember right. All these sources make you think I am super tall, I am just barely 6' tall, but I guess in the climbing world thats tall.
