Yes, it is at Pebble Beach. Covered in cobwebs last time I saw it.

Ugh, that’s too bad...looks like an awesome line.

HeY ! E!

And - Why? Because its there(more climbing in this one), Happy New Year -  to Chris and the Tolen Family

Another from the Gunks: 

That Archimedes' Principle video would be really cool if he actually placed any of the gear while on lead.

I don't think I've seen this one here yet:

or this one.  

One more, awesome looking route in Iran. May want to mute if you aren't into trance music. Seems a little novice on the drone operation, but the climbing is still great. 

Hmm Run out you say? 

This is "Grit, climbing" and a very strong ethic prevails, No pre-top roping if you want credit

Ummm... he pre-top roped it before the lead. Cool video, though, and scary anyways

Hey Thank You for that & the link. I just din't think that they would toot the horn, if he had,

 I took the 2nd ascent comment to mean that he had worked it ground up taking that swinging fall into the crash pad, thats all. . .  

I stand corrected! the way the world changes! I wish they had allowed top rope/pre-inspection when I was there.

Still looking for this one

"Gibson climbs major new line on Wimberry

Miles Gibson has succeeded on a major new route at Wimberry near Sickbay Shuffle.

 He called the route Dangermouse and gave it a grade of E9 7a

. "You get gear behind a crack (on Bertie's Bugbear) and a flake on the arete. 

That's it though, there is no more gear."

Miles climbed the route   .  .  .   after waiting for the right cooler conditions.

 He had been trying it on and off for  . . .  two months -  but the conditions proved very frustrating

. When it was cool in August it was wet, and since the weather improved, it has usually been too warm.

The steep direct arete below Sickbay Shuffle is one of many 'last great problems' at Wimberry.

 Over the years this wonderful crag has given up its treasures sporadically

 with Kevin Thaw's Sectioned, E8 being the last major new route in 2004.

 However there are still plenty of gaps and perhaps Miles' new route might spur some more interest in this superb crag.
