Mike Amato showing the ends of his 60m rope after lowering off from the top of the second pitch. With rope stretch, he barely made to down to a safe spot.<br /><br />Better alternatives:<br />1. With a 60m rope, bring your partner up to the top of p2 and rappel straight down.<br />2. Use a 70m rope if you want to lower off from the top of p2.<br />3. Do the climb in two pitches.<br /><br />Edit: The climb now has 3 pitches, so it's probably best just to do it as a two- or three-pitch climb and descend by rappel.
