This is a superfun varied climb. Bring some extra webbing up just in case the anchors need to be replaced. I think the Aluminum rap ring is a bit beat up as well. Peace Out, Joel

This was our last route (out of 29 total)in five days in June of 07. It will be maybe the most memorable. The climb in true Black Hills fashion, is "run out" and for better of worse we did not have much beta. The "step across" on to the head wall was a surprise and a little scary. Rope drag nearly pulled me off the face and I had to pinch a small crystal to stay on. Believe me you don't want to fall on the last ten feet of this one. That being said "One Epic Leads to Another" has become one of my favorite climbs in the Hills.
