New route on Striated
by STeveA » Sun May 24, 2009 4:36 pm
We added another to the Arete series, "Old Age Arete, 5.7 100'. Start on the arete left of Thrash and Crash. Continue up and left for 100'. Very spicy with bad pro, big free standing flakes. Climbed ground up without any pre-inspection or cleaning. Good example of old school climbing. Really nice finish on clean exposed rock.
You are, therefore I am. That is the question....

Nice work Old Schooler!
Ground up - That is trad climbing.
This week in NY I demonstrated some hang-dogin' - almost kicked into aid mode
Damn NY 8+'s and 9's are killer to the weak like me.

Was something handed to you Burley? hehe
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.
