I've burned about an hour and a half watching your videos today lol. Beautiful climbs, great footwork, and much more confident than I as far as gear placements go. Keep sharing them!
Thanks! Really appreciate this 🙏. Right now most of my focus is on my project The Climbing Majority Podcast. But I've been placing some of my POV clips on my Instagram. Wish I had time for everything!!
It was really spectacular! And me too man, I am feeling like I will be able to get some ice climbing in this winter and be be ready to go for climbing early Spring. You'll be the first to know.
Donner Summit is probably covered in feet of snow right now. Siked to hear about your rack, keep building that sucker, and don't get caught in the trap of buying all one brand of cams.
@@henndawg42069 Yeah I would diversify with totems, offset cams, and just try singles of some other brands. See what you like. I ended up having triples of C4's and could climb most things, but found myself very underprepared without totems and offsets.
Why don't you extend those first 2 cams? Seems like with no extension they'd walk the second you climb above them. Even in a parallel cracks, seems like a good thing to do, especially on long pitches that aren't perfectly straight. Also reduces rope drag. But I've never climbed this pitch, just curious if there's a reason you didn't extend those first two
I am usually a huge fan of extending my pieces and understand their benefits. But in this scenario the route was more or less straight and I was able to stay super close to the wall while passing them. I have found that is the most important, the first few feet passing the piece. Once your above it, the chance of it walking is minimal. Thanks for the question and hope this helps. 🤙

I really liked this pitch of 'OHC'. Friendly cracks wit h great placements.
Nice footage, thanks.
Added to my to-do list. This has got to be one of my new favorite POV channels
Damn Rob. That means a lot. Thank you!
You’re smooth with it, makes me wanna go practice foot jams
Awesome! Walkie talkies are a great idea!! Also, that rhino horn at about 4.00 looks way too good to not sling! Great videos!
Thanks!!! Really appreciate the feedback. And yeah, it seemed a little suss to me. Seemed a bit detached.
Nice. Thank u from Italy
You are welcome. Say hello to the Dolomites for me.
Nice dude. What a beautiful bunch of hand cracks. Can't wait for you to be back on the rock and sending again.

TIL Donner Pass. Looks amazing. Hopefully, when the rain is done for I can check out this area. Have about half a standard rack built up so far :)

@@Brox_Rocks Good to hear, I wouldn't have known otherwise. I was just going to rack up on BD C4s, as that is what my 0.5-3 set is.

man what a gorgeous climb! why cant the cracks be that solid where i live?
Haha Where do you live?
