I should have extended it before the top-out. I must have been too pumped to think.

Such a classic! Dude you styled it, good work 👍🏻
mon that was excellent
Another comment from an OG climber. One of the best crack climbs I've done anywhere, sustained thin fingers to medium hands, wonderful friction on the granite face and it eats up trad pro. I don't recall using cams at all. Of course, not everybody had a ton of cams in those days lol. But the nut & small hex placements were absolutely bombproof. I even slung that tree in the middle; it was solid even then. Great vid of a great climb.👍
[edit] Glad I found your youtube channel. I've bookmarked it-I'm kinda old school in that I don't subscribe, sorry. But I appreciate that you put up superb moderate to easy climbs, not just the 10's & above. There's a certain snobbery that says if it's not at least 5.10, it can't be a 5 star climb. I've done 'way too many 5 star moderates at 5.8 & under to believe that. Even if they weren't rated that highly in the guidebook.
@@progressivefrog3681 thanks for watching, I may be young but I’m a Trad dad at heart! Moderates are the most fun!
@@BasicThought To give you an idea of how old I am & how long I've been climbing, when I started, some of the guys I climbed with didn't trust any pro you couldn't hammer in. That was "trad" pro lol.
Wow, you climbed lower section (before the tree) so easy. I started doing lie back since the crack seemed to be too thin and did not have good time there at all.
Nice climb! You floated it. This is on my tick list. Do you know if you can rap to the side and setup etude for TR?
yes if you make a gear anchor at the top of this climb
