Superratic pillar at Ten Sleep this summer:

Climber, while tying in: “Are you good to belay me dude?”

Belayer, holding a beer: “Yeah it’s alright the gri-gri is sober.”

Thats a tough call and depends on style i guess? At least 14b if pitching it out based on route description with the crux being pitch 18, but if simulclimbing who knows how many bolts you could clip in a row through any of the 5th class sections.

“I can’t believe no climbers have touched this giant cliff”

something i am sure most people have heard a lot of at the crag the last couple years:

"alex honnold this..."

"alex honnold that..."

"alex honnold with a wiffle ball bat..."
