Trying hard.

B-Team Arete 5.13a  CO : Durango : ... : Byrd's
Bill apparently had been looking at this for years. Finally inspired by the recent bolting at East A., he motivated. Slap and compression your way through crimps and slopers up this arete. We're not too sure about the grade but decided to start the bidding at 13a. Who knows, it might be 12b. No matter the grade, it's hella fun!...[more]   Browse More Classics in CO

Ratty rap anchors replaced with new chains at top of No Justice for Rodney courtesy of Flagstaff SimianCrew. Would have liked to update the bolts but... didn't want to upset the status quo.

Good call, Dean. The status quo always takes precedence over replacing crappy, 30 year old Star drives at East A. Unless it is "your" route, then you can do whatever the hell you want.
