Well, my man died 20 years ago today and rather than a death spew , i figured a decent trip report from BITD ( i'll do some photos when I can figure how to reduce them)\\
Yosemite-
Syeve's trying to get ready for Denali, so i sugest Royal Arches. I have done it once and Steve as well. My idea is a bit strange.. we will simuclimb 'till we run out of gear then switch. A reluctant OK and off we go
1:03 later, i haven't runout of gear and am in the trees. "last timetime this took all day and I got nighted"--Steve
Off to Crest Jewel-- He;s getting a bit leary now-- we move together for the 12 pitches and top in 2:02.. not bad
"I guess I'm ready for Denali"
He did the Cassin round trip in 4 days next month
