Does anyone out there have any info about the aid on this route? The topo i have shows 2 moves of aid on the 6th pitch, do you really need to have etriers up there, or is it easy enough to get through w/ slings. any information would be appreciated.

Hi Rob T,

Just thought I'd respond directly... The two aid moves were freed on the 2nd ascent and no aiders are needed. On the first ascent we were a little behind schedule and I was in a big hurry leading that pitch.

The route is quite good and you will find it a fun day's adventure.

cheers
Dave

wow, straight from the horses mouth. 2 weeks until the appointed weekend, looks like if all goes according to plan, we'll be following in your footsteps all 4 days. thanks for the information
