Mar 18, 2026 The climb might be dry, but be sure to scope the slabs approach before heading up. Daytime temps would be chilly but good, but overnight will be cold if bivying. View Message

Mar 4, 2026 I am sick of having to be conservative with phone battery and want to phase out aaa headlamp batteries on the wall this year. Does anyone have a battery system they like for wa… View Message

Mar 3, 2026 I'm looking for a climbing partner for friday this week. I prefer multi pitches, but am open to cragging too.Some Objectives I'm keen on are:North East Buttress Higher Cathedra… View Message

Feb 9, 2026 Isn't pitch 12 of LF quite a few hooks? Nothing to be intimidated by, but as a new aid climber at the time it was memorable. View Message

Feb 8, 2026 I think triple direct is more appealing due to its shorter approach, higher quality pitches/position and bivy ledges. LF has a lot more hooking and is a bit harder overall. The… View Message

Jan 28, 2026 Not sure what you mean but rear, but the tape is thick and stiff. It might not work too well on the fabric covering the tubing since how stiff it is. But it worked great for pa… View Message

Jan 27, 2026 I like to use bunny ear figure eight if I want to equalize the bolts. View Message

Jan 27, 2026 I put a 1.5 foot long tear in mine after overstressing the clip loop spreader bar. I used burly gorilla waterproof patch and seal tape from the hardware store, so far it has wo… View Message

Jan 20, 2026 Top route choices are leaning tower, prow or niad. Also interested in most multi pitches up to about 5.10 such as super slacker hwy. Weather is amazing here,  am psyched t… View Message

Dec 22, 2025 I live in yosemite valley and have Wednesday and Thursday off each week and some mornings too. I am experienced on aid  and looking for big days. Anyone interested should… View Message

Nov 20, 2025 If a thinner rope lasts fewer ascents, wouldn't it have a larger environmental impact than a thicker rope that lasts longer? View Message

Nov 19, 2025 The Black Velvet descent isn't too bad, but has been the site of some epics due to getting lost in the dark. When I was up there 9 months ago there were 2 big cairns marking wh… View Message

Oct 17, 2025 I've done both easy 5.7 multis and zodiac LRS. Ironically, soloing el cap feels much more solid. When aid soloing, I love the clove hitch for tricky and technical terrain when… View Message

Oct 11, 2025 While mostly towers have a long scree slog to reach the base, I personally thought South Six shooter was not worth the walk unless you or your partner are psyched on easier cli… View Message

Oct 8, 2025 I have the metolious one and like it. It's very convenient for starting to haul and staying organized. Free climbing in a loaded chest harness is a hassle, but its never easy w… View Message

Oct 7, 2025 Thanks Kevin, I'll be sure to reach out to him once he gets down from Disorderly. View Message

Oct 6, 2025 I thought I would update my comment about sharing the d42p. After sharing it with my shorter partner for 10 nights between 2 ascents, we fit pretty well on it. It was still a b… View Message

Sep 20, 2025 Day 8     Two hours later, Grayson grabs the gear I am laying upon and begins leading the zig zags. Fortunately this link takes 3h and I enjoy a restful belay be… View Message

Sep 20, 2025 In late February of this year, a warm weather window brought me to Yosemite for my first wall of 2025. I recruited Nathan and Grayson to make a three day siege on South Face of… View Message

Sep 20, 2025 Not using radios is fine when nothing goes wrong. I've used them on my last 6 partnered wall ascents and find them critical if anyone on your team is new to wall climbing.  View Message

Sep 15, 2025 While the approach is much more involved than chapel pond, I greatly enjoyed the old route on rooster comb for an easy adk climb. It was moderate well protected climbing to a n… View Message

Sep 14, 2025 Once after replacing the webbing in my alfifi it continued to slip. Turns out my buckles teeth were wearing down. Skot sent me a new buckle straight to the valley and it was ea… View Message

Sep 13, 2025 Hey Dave!Although I have not done any other routes on your list, the RNWF was amazing! If you haven't done it yet, would highly recommend. I assume the nose is either too… View Message

Aug 27, 2025 After 5 days of rain, the spring has a steady trickle. A siphon hose would work great. View Message

Aug 17, 2025 I wear them because I like granite multipitches and cracks. For the climbing I'm doing, shoes that hurt seem unnecessary. I appreciate the ankle protection for wide climbing. T… View Message

Aug 16, 2025 Would you sell and ship just the stoppers? If so, how much? View Message

Aug 16, 2025 I wish packing out would be required on any popular camping zones, at any place above elevation of forests or by any large crews. It was disappointing to learn NOLS doesnt requ… View Message

Aug 15, 2025 I'm slowly booking up, pms are still appreciated for short days. View Message

Aug 15, 2025 I think so, especially if you play online.  View Message

Aug 14, 2025 My misty mountain titan has served me well on big walls. It isn't too heavy for free climbing, but doesn't pack well. If I bought another I'd be sure to get a rear gear loop. M… View Message

Aug 14, 2025 While I'm happy to lead and push myself, I have no shame in backing off if I feel there is reasonable risk of getting injured. At the end of the day, I don't climb to prove any… View Message

Aug 14, 2025 Bumping since I'm thinking about getting on this later in the month.  View Message

Aug 13, 2025 I got a good block of t/o for some Summer climbing in the Sierras. While my first choice objectives are big walls, I'm open to anything including short chill days too. Some Obj… View Message

Aug 12, 2025 I no longer have a gaming PC, but I logged 2.5k hours into counterstrike over 5 years when I was younger and played on a team. I was disappointed competitive gaming didn't make… View Message
