The Venturi Effect (5.12c, Grade V)

  • Venturi is without a doubt one of the best climbs I have ever done if not the very best. It takes an incredibly ascetic line up perfect rock on one of the most striking alpine faces anywhere. It is very sustained at the 5.11/5.12 level and certainly keeps you on your toes from the first few feet to the last few.
    Peter Foster and I hiked out to the Hulk on 8/9 with a few other friends and spent the first day on Blowhard (5.12+, Grade IV) where Peter casually onsighted the route leading every pitch. The next day, we went for Venturi but unfortunately Pete could not quite squeak in the OS. Peter fell once on the route and I fell 3 times which is a regression from the first time I climbed the thing and only fell twice. I hiked out after this climb but I'm pretty sure Peter is still up there, likely crushing some other routes.

    Holy shit, I can’t recall ever seeing footage or photos of a more beautiful route. That head wall shot around 7:16 is just unreal. Can’t imagine leading anywhere near 5.12 at that altitude (or sea level for that matter), some of those mountains make 5.9 feel like a struggle.
    Thank you so much for sharing these incredible climbs. It’s seriously getting the fire in me reignited and I want (more like need) to get back out on the rock after an obscenely long hiatus from climbing.

    I love it when the gear is left to dangle on on the rope...means there's a genuine "oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck" moment.

    I’m not sure if you meant to describe this as an incredibly ascetic line or whether you meant an incredibly aesthetic line - it’s both but I like ascetic as it’s so hard and so gear so sparse.
    Those POV shots hand over hand in the cracks are scary AF

      Lol for me it was a 5.7 move in the alpine the other day. Wasn't a hard move but it involved a smear and a slanting large crimp. Last piece was at my feet and there was a small ledge below me. All I could think was that if the smear blew then my hand would too and I would bounce off the ledge and probably have alot of stretch (was probably 15' from the end of the rope). Managed to find a higher piece and got the move without too much fuss though. Blew alot of time between that and the odd anchor situation just 10' after that though. At least I was hustling fast and runout the rest of the day.

    • @rushthezeppelin
      @rushthezeppelin 3 года назад +1

      In the alpine no less. Seriously irresponsible in my opinion. I would never climb with someone, especially in the alpine, without a helmet. MAYBE MAYBE MAYBE if we were doing super steep single pitch sport on very solid rock but I would certainly still opt to keep the brain bucket on.

    • @TerjeMathisen
      @TerjeMathisen 3 года назад

      You always want a second rope on a climb like this where you have to rappel the same way down: Having two ropes is far easier than carrying a double-length rope. It also makes it much easier to avoid rope drag when you have sections of parallel cracks and the best placements alternate.

    • @tylerkarow
      @tylerkarow  3 года назад +1

      It’s not a rated rope and it was solely used for hauling a pack. We did not use it to climb or rap.

    • @TerjeMathisen
      @TerjeMathisen 3 года назад +1

      @@tylerkarow OK! My first and last big wall climbing in Yosemite was in 1981, at that point we climbed Half Dome (the regular route) in about 6 hours and then Quarter Domes in 5. This was a very hot summer so El Cap was out of the question but Half Dome was possible to finish around lunch time before the sun hit the face. We only used a single rope for those but back home in Norway I did a lot of double 9mm climbing, for security, rope drag and rappel reasons.
