In late September WNC was hit with a massive rainstorm and hurricane that produced record flooding. This was a 1-1000 storm that cause water levels to raise to unimaginable levels, houses, roads, and towns were completely destroyed. Almost all of WNC’s wide life area’s were closed for several weeks. Now several weeks later some areas are now stable but still desperately need help rebuilding. If...

Chestnut creek is a beginner/intermediate friendly canyon in North Carolina. It has 3 rappels 1 jump and several slides. Before going become familiar with webbing anchors around trees, knot blocks and whistle commands. (2) 100’ ropes or (1) 200’ will get you through the canyon. Both the approach and exit are a chill and short hike down the road. Rap (1) 30’ off tree Rap (2) 80’ off tree Rap (3)...

Climbing Big Rock's Widest and Thinnest Cracks
why not use a 120 sling with a knot to adjust for a chest harness then i use a small skinny cordage attached to the grigri then clip into the harness and cordage with a biner to keep it near my chest
I actually bought avants chest harness since this video. But a 120 slings works well too.
Thank you for this video! I can think of many times I needed something like this! Every man truly does know something you do not.
Glad I could help!
Today I'm going to Solo Climbing for the first time, hope I don't die
That’s Awsome let us know how it goes.
@PitsToPeaks I survived ahahhaha Btw the route I chose was too difficult for me I couldn't manage to climb more then 10 meters, enough to test the system, microTraxion is a good third hand olding the rope. The only bad thing is that grigri is not made for that situation, so in case of a fall (that I simulated) you have to be a fast thinker and grab the correct rope to help it engage
couldn't those slip knots pull themselves out pretty easily in the event they get hung up on the wall while they're dangling there?
Surprisingly I haven’t had that issue.
Dope!
Thanks for the info! Super helpful.
Love the intensity of your vidoes 😅. No way I'd have the stoke to claw my way up a slimy, mossy, wet rock with sub-par protection, but great effort. 😎
Excellent.... Thank you Daniel.
Bro does not know the 🌡️🦅 beta
Great video, y'all! I did Groover with the Fischesser variant a few years ago, and it was the most intense thing I've personally ever climbed. That down climb and traverse on pitch four will remain etched in my memory for the rest of my days!
That traverse is insane. I have never climbed anything like it. It wasn’t the hardest pitch but the most creative.
Heyyy thats us on fathom haha, great vid, groover's on the list now for sure!
Hell yeah. Did you lose a jacket/sweatshirt the western North Carolina climbers fb page has a post looking for the owner.
That traverse lead definitely had me a tense and im just watching this
I missed a cam placement at the base of the second water groove. But even with that it would still feel spicy.
Great Climbing Daniel
Thanks for watching!
Scary
That’s how I felt to.
thank you so much for your work on videos like this. incredible work!
A few obvious and easy to acomplish improvements: 1) A tree anchor prevents factor-2 falls, eliminating a big danger. 2) I pre-tie a in-line double fisherman knot between the anchor and the next bolt and at this point instead if a quick draw (carabiner) I use a quick link on both ends - making this your back-up anchor: the fishermans' will jam against the quick link. 3) a force limiter (screemer) as backbone in the back-up anchor (described directly above) and potentially the next bolt will add safety by limiting the hardest falls. 4) Consider adding a few loosely tied butterfly knots in the rope towards the anchor. The tightening of these during a fall will absorb energy, demishing the forces
Is this 5.9 offwidth? It's on the main wall, not Upper Shaman
Oh shit my mistake. It’s fixed now I think.
Thanks for the post! Did you see the comment I made about creating more of a dynamic catch by using a screamer in your bottom anchor? (Maybe even @ one of your draws too) Look at this video: ruclips.net/video/ZAeNwBb_WWI/видео.html I know it's aid, and I know he's younger but it seems he's been trained quite well. Also, if / when you get a triple action locking biner for your first point (instead of quick link) you can clip the rope back on itself Juuust in case ;) Subbed! Thanks for the videos. (Also, not saying you have to do this; just want your thoughts on it)
I’ve thought about using screamers. I actually have some for hard aid myself. I’ve found once I make it to my second piece the fall factor is low enough that falling doesn’t feel all that different than having a belayer. You can look at my “can I LRS 5.12” video to see that it’s fairly soft. My “the womb” video shows even with a high factor fall I came out of it fine. I will probably use screamers one day. At the moment I’m focusing on dialing in my system on easier climbs that I am unlikely to fall on. The guy in the video you linked is actually my buddy Timmy. I climbed with him in “climbing A3 with big Tim”. I do like his anchor system and that is probably what I will do if I ever use a screamer.
@@PitsToPeaks Nice! When you guys gonna let me jug and haul for ya'll on the glass? lol ;) Thanks brother, just wanted to see what your thoughts were on it.
Excellent video! Was thinking of switching to this method from the micro trax after I saw it on Hownot2’s video
I’m still figuring it out. I’ve tried clove and a cow hitch. I didn’t really think rather were easy to dump. I may try a slipknot next.
It's very cool to see someone going old-school. ;) Folks have been LRSoloing since the dawn of roped climbing. with this exact technique. Interestingly, this new generation believes this is a new concept created out of thin air! I wonder what that says. History is forgotten, nothing is remembered, if it's not on video.
Do you have a harness where the gear loops are rated? That seems like it would make this system extra safe.
You don’t need rated loops. Even if the gear loop rips off the carabiner will stay on the rope and pull tight against the grigri locking it down.
@ I was thinking about actually backing up the Grigi and being redundant there.
@@jsparger A much cheaper and lighter option is to make "a rated gear loop" by hitching a 30cm sling around the harness belt.
Heck yeah dude looked like a fight
Nice again bro!
What do you think about using a Petzl ASAP instead of the slipknot/cow hitches?
You would need a asap combined with a microtraction. If I understand the asap correctly it freely spins in both directions. It could be a backup to the grigri but it would not hold the slack side of the rope off the grigri causing it to lock.
then you rappel down you are using similar to MRS system of arborists ;)
Anticuerpo… means antibody
Thank you for the video! I thought it might be helpful to pre-tie a second figure-eight knot at the anchor point for cleaning. This way, when you rappel, you can clip in easily without having to rely on your quickdraw being the right size for the knot. Thoughts?
Or would you just use your extended anchor leash to clip into the figure-eight knot as a backup with some slack?
Adding the anchor leash as a backup directly to the original figure-eight knot before you release the anchor. . In my mind, this would make you redundant. Does this make sense?
I have clipped straight to the figure 8 on the locker bolt. That works well. If the figure 8 knot can pass through the second quickdraw than it renders the quicklink of it in place of a standard carabiner pointless. The knot shouldn’t pass through the quicklink on the second draw, that is what makes the anchor redundant.
If you put the carabiners with the cache loops the other way around it's much easier to free the rope as the gate opening will be on the bottom when you twist the carabiner upwards.
Good tip thank you. I will probably change to a clove hitch or slip knot as well.
Lmao you’re nuts
You can also cut the hooks off the webbing and basically have a couple yates daisies, I suppose. I’m not sure what the advantage of the alfifi over two adjustable/releasable daisies is supposed to be. Seems like hype, and two Yates (or Skots) daisies are cheaper.
For easy aid where you don’t need a leash on every piece it is extremely fast to move from piece to piece with the all fifi.
I've seen it again .. very brave mate !!! the rock and the crack were so wet pffff ... , but with a lot of confidence . Congratulations . Seeing it , doesn't seem easy.
Good video except the music
Great video, I enjoyed it a lot.
As always y’all did a fantastic job filming, climbing, and narrating. Love the NC run out sections. I’m adding this one to my list.
Appreciate your effort ("clip" climbing...) Daniel, thank you!
You dont recover de 2 carabines at the Top?
Why everyone use Petzl Micro Traxion for cache loops? What you can say about any other similar devices, like CT Roll n lock and so on? Can any such device be considered approximately the same it therms of management cache loops or does only Micro Traxion have some important non-obvious features? And thanks for the video!
No reason to use the micro traction instead of something like the edelrid spoc. As long as it feeds rope smoothly and effortlessly it doesn’t matter.
Looks like a good time!
Great video, thanks. One minor thing would be to screw the Maillon shut downwards, not upwards, so it can't become loose through vibrations, which make the screwgate follow gravity. Stay safe!
Could you use the running clove on a super easy multi? If you have a back up and take a small fall is the clove likely to cinch or prone to not catch?
I believe the clove will slip the least of all the devices. You can use it on an easy route but you will be spending a lot of time manually feeding rope through.
Is this Currahee mountain
Yes. The his is deprived child on the slab wall.
That’s a sweet looking cave. Nice editing. 🙌
You should go try it!
@@PitsToPeaks maybe I will. Maybe I will!
I went back about a month later and there was hardly any water running. Felt like a different cave.
Wheres the fun in that?
Currahee!
Do you have a GPX file you can share by chance?
I just added the GPX file using dropbox. Let me know if it does not work.
@@PitsToPeaks Sick, thanks man!
Your anchors essentially only one bolt , the first one with the quicklink . in the event of a fall if that bolt pops all the slack too the next bolt is coming into the system until your maillon reaches it . Not ideal really .
I’ve adjusted my system since posting this video. Check out my can I lrs 5.12 video to see how I do it now.
sick bro!!’nn
I live in Charlotte NC, but never been to looking glass. How long is the approach in from the parking lot? I have a ton of gear but want to plan accordingly.
20-30 minutes depending on your pace. You have 3 trail heads available depending on which wall you want to climb at. The north side would be your best bet with the current heat. Make sure you don’t mistakenly take the hikers trail to the top. I made that mistake my first trip out 😆
@@PitsToPeaks Awesome Thanks!
Nice work for sure! That's a hard climb on lead let alone lead rope soloing it!
Honestly I don’t think it’s that bad. It feels like one hard move the whole route.
Another excellent video. Thanks for showing the cleaning process of LRS. It's tougher than you'd think on routes that traverse as much as the Seal.
I wish I had done the second pitch differently. But yeah it’s always a pain.
