| Yeah Brad, did it last fall, anytime you want a catch let me know. People have been on it but not sure if its had a second ascent. You would be the man to put that to rest. Had a very nice cuppa at yours the other day, the place looks great. Clay, I think I used one of the holds you mentioned somewhere on the route. |
