● The Nose
Nov 30, 2025 · 30 pitches. Lead. 30 pitches for 30th bday! Awesome first Nose experience, long and slow wall style over 5 days with Siri. Perfect weather and had the route completely to ourselves. Couldn’t ask for more (except maybe more daylight!). Day 0 - fix Pine Line on Sunday night while hiking gear in. The only pitch I did without ladders ha ha. Day 1 - climb and haul to base of Stovelegs (p6) Day 2 - climb to El Cap tower(p12). Nice bivy to ourselves. Day 3 - climb to p18, below Great Roof. Texas Flake scary, even with a (short) stick clip! King swing fun. Day 4 - climb to Camp 6 (p23). Tired, hard day for me. Day 5 - top out ~1530, settle in for a lovely summit bivy. Changing corners is a beautiful pitch of climbing. Day 6 - hike down east ledges. Much easier than I remembered. Aided about as much as possible, more free would obviously speed things up. I led and hauled 25/30 pitches. Feels great to accomplish a goal that Siri and I have been working on together for almost 3 years. Now I can shelve big walling until I can free climb more. Woo!
