I'm heading to Chataqua this afternoon (Saturday) and want to climb the Third Flatiron.  If anyone needs a partner, I would be glad to trad climb it, otherwise I will just solo it.  Is there anyone already with a partner that would let me abseil from the top on your rope?

Any interest in roping up and doing direct route on the first?

David- I may be heading to Boulder later today if I get done with work in time. If so, I’d be happy to rope up. I’ll let you know.

Yeah but I encountered like 40 kids from THE Ohio State University starting early as fuck, they kept knocking down rock and not saying anything so I aborted, still had fun scouted the route and bouldered at the base of the summit. Rappelling is definitely the way to finish. Down climb looks a little sketchy (scary as fuck haha, but I climbed up that route about 75% to the top and it was not so bad, very adventurous indeed. 

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
