Comments: Steve Kentz and I did it in 72' or 73'. We had custom tube chocks. Great route! A confidence builder which took us to the next level.

Comments: Wrong again. Henry lead it barefoot with Steve Shea second and Pat Adams third. We all climbed the chimney. It was an old aid climb. The chimney is not that bad! SS BTW Henry used small wires and a crack n up or two.

Comments: Wrong again. I did the FA with Chris Landry, Kennedy was not there. We rated it 5.10. There were no fixed pins or anchors. It was fun.

Comments: This is BS, it is known as Pipeline. 5.11 I climbed this with Bob Wade of the Ute Mountaineer shop in Aspen. Sex Wax is a contrived variation. Pipeline is a cool overhanging (leaning) flare with thin stemming, and it took small wires well. It is a solid, old school, 5.11 trad route or was. Do bolt happy sporty climbers get to supercede our original name? Just saying, just asking. Steve Shea

Location: CO : Independence Pass : Grotto Walls Area : Second Grotto Wall : Necronomicom Direct (5.11+)

Comments: This pitch was first climbed by me and Greg Davis in 1977. We called it Necronomicon Direct. As described, it goes up an overhanging hand crack. We rated it 5.10d or 5.11. All good pro nothing fixed. It is not 666 Variation, sorry. I was also on the FA of the first pitch with Lou Dawson. Steve Shea.
