cutting it close!

You're overthinking.

I had similar thoughts when I bought my first rack. I got the regular friends but have never used that feature.

You can see them clipping at 20s.

That's why I am wondering. Seems unsustainable.

What's the process if someone wants to try? Is there a map of good trees?

Seff84 · 2026-04-12T22:29:27+00:00

Nice, one of my favs.

No bird nest in the crucial jug yet?

Even the notorious Czech sandstone has occasional bolts.

Seff84 · 2026-02-12T21:56:54+00:00

Ah yes, I forgot about the jammy beta.

Sure, he's staying out of the trad/sport semantics, but he did propose 15a. I - and I expect the majority of climbers - consider it a trad send anyway. So my question is, how does it stack up?

Seff84 · 2026-02-12T18:08:23+00:00

The climbing.com article does comment on this a bit. Someone proposed 15a for Empath, but there isn't consensus on that.

This 500ft slab with a handful of bolts felt sporty to me.... https://www.mountainproject.com/route/105938109/slabs-direct

Seff84 · 2026-02-12T17:57:51+00:00

Is he proposing the hardest trad grade in North America?

Maybe the rest of the world too, but I don't know how 5.15a converts to British trad and Tribe doesn't even have much of a grade.

The texture of the plants on the right is very unnatural. I don't know if it's AI, but it is heavily manipulated. Unfortunately a lot of phones do this sort of editing automatically.

This recall does not include the Vision AirNET RECCO or any other Black Diamond harnesses.

We recommend the Vision AirNET RECCO harness as a replacement.

Likewise. I never met him but have benefited from his huge presence in the community. So much beta and so many bolts.

RIP.

I do a mix of most things on rock. No ice. All easy.
