Overhanging

Wow, impressive climb and he is even skipping some of the bolts! How long did it take to get to the top?

Re: Overhanging

Actually, he didn't skip any of the bolts, he just left the draws on the ones he thought would be really reachy for me. Unfortunately, we ran out of time and only got to do the first two pitches. It took us 2 1/2 hours total to get both of us up the first pitch. The second pitch took Mark about 30 minutes and me 45 minutes or so. Very slow going. We apparently need to work the bugs out of this whole exercise. Very cool and rewarding though.
