TWall - Pushing My Limitwoodzy | 04 January, 2007 10:29 Came back home early from the break so I could get out to T-Wall and enjoy the beautiful weather (read crazy warm for December) we are having now. I used my fancy new GPS to find out how long the T-Wall trail was... and I think the verdict is .5 miles horizontal distance and maybe .75 miles on the actual trail after you account for vertical rise. Everything was seeping today, must have been from the big rains two days ago or so, but the waterfall and a lot of the major cracks were spewing water. - Started out on Razorworm a very nice 5.8 crack. I remember being pretty scared on this about a year and a half ago I think, but I felt just so secure on it today - Then ran over to Points of Contact - 10c. And it shot me off when you get to the "dual cracks" or the super thin crack. It is an outstanding line though and well protected in all the parts your looking for protection. - Threw my climbing partner on Hungry for Heaven, a pumpfest for 10d onsight for sure. The key is just keep moving until your on big holds :) which is why this is a 10 and not an 11.. rests. - Then Mirage, an awesome 11ish sport route near Hungry for Heaven. Sport climbing is such a vacation. Next day... all sport on the south side - A Turn of the Page (10a os) - Sweet route! Obviously the ugly duckling of the 13's around the corner, but this route certainly has its own merit. - Keel Hauled (13a) - I couldn't do the lip move (which is the 13a part obviously), but there were fixed draws so it truly was a vacation. - Stone Hinge (12b/c) - Hah... way harder than that, had to bail. - The Messenger (14a) - The 14a move requires some real man juice... some ridiculous stemming for sure with some mad crazy shoulder strength. There is no way I could think about doing this move heh... - Gave Keel Hauled another go... same place |
