Wet and Wild (Linkup) Rock Climbing

The Wet and Wild Linkup consists of Swimming, Hiking, and Climbing 3 routes to get to the top of Mount Scott for a score based on Time minus difficulty factors explained below.

This idea was dreamed up by J. Lozano and M. Johnson while taking a break at UMS between climbs. "We should swim across the lake and climb to the top!" After texting a friend A. Mitchell about the idea he said "Let's do it Monday!", so Wet and Wild was born with the first 3-man "Wet & Mild" linkup kicked off in the chilly waters of Lawtonka & completed at sundown Oct 6 2020.

- Capture Start Time

- Swim > 600 yds across Lake Lawtonka.

- Hike on foot without assistance to Lower Mount Scott and climb any route of your choosing.

- Hike on foot without assistance to Upper Mount Scott and climb any route of your choosing.

- Hike on foot without assistance to Dreamboat Annie and climb any route.

- Capture Finish time when last climber tops out final route.

SCORING:

- Time in Minutes - (total route grades x 3) - (5 points per trad route).

- Example: 3 hrs 20 minutes - (27 x 3) - (15 trad points for 3 trad routes) = 104 points

- Example 2: 3 hrs - (32 x 3) - (5 trad points for 1 Trad Lead and 2 sport routes) = 79 points

*All eligible routes & grades based on Tony Mayse Guidebook

*Wet & Wild = 3 routes with grade points totaling ≥ 27 points (first W&W open to be completed)

*Wet & Mild = Any 3 routes
