Anyone down to take a lap on Durrance sometime in April? Can definitely belay, maybe lead a couple pitches (I'm slow, so if you're looking for speed I'm happy to stick on belay, haha).
 I have a standard rack and a 70m rope. Just looking for an opp to get outside and keep working on multipitch skills :)

It looks like a really nice climb

I'll be heading to Devil's Tower around the last week in April (between 4/24 and 4/30, exact dates are flexible), I'd be down for a lap up Durrance. If you want to partner up and plan a day that works for you feel free to shoot me a text: 732-513-8608

You'll need to get up really early for that route...seriously, that route sees more traffic than 35W in Minneapolis.

If you can step up your game just slightly, the Bon Homme variation is cruiser and far less busy. There is a traverse after the wide section down low that is super low angle that protects well for the second, then it is hands in a corner.  Second pitch IIRC is kind of easy crack moves. There are two cracks, use the right one, it has better pro.

If Durrance is crowded, another possible alternative is Pseudo-Weissner. Honestly, a more flowing enjoyable route (IMHO) than Durrance though definitely PG in spots.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
