I have searched the forum posts but I can't find anything. Otherwise, I've heard the approach is staggering.

Eh, I bet it's all choss anyway.

Plan on using oxygen?

I think using oxygen would mean it's no longer a red point though.

What do you suppose a 5.13 would look like there with 1/3 the gravity of here? Can you imagine the dynos?

Just a matter of time before the whole thing is grid bolted and terraformed.

Training on Mars definitely won't transfer well back to the state, but you'll probably have the place to yourself.

I hear Space X has some space available for a ride to the approach trail. Try contacting them.

I hear the climbing is good but it's a long approach. Bring at least 3 liters of water.

Climb X will get you there for half the price.

Brilliant! Or take some BD recall cams and say, "we come in pieces."

are you sure aliens are the best small cam for mars? i don't know if this has been discussed before, but I wanted to know what everyone thought about all the small cams out there for mars climbing. i saw in Climbing that pink tricams are mandatory?

Looks chossy, it'd be neat to see how the images scale, though.
