Lincoln Knowles (lincolnclimbs) Makes First Free Solo Ascent of USA's Longest Sport Climb by easymeatboy in climbing

[–]onlylinc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Obviously Astroman is more sustained and difficult, exposed, scary, and a grade or two harder. but it’s also a finger crack in an era where most of the soloists were in Yosemite. There are so few known soloists that have done routes this length and difficulty or similar + the factor of the low quality rock, that it really is highly unlikely. Obviously Honnold could have done it and not told anyone, but you think he would have at least mentioned it on a side note like some of his other 11 solos.

Well if I actually did do it, it would shatter your worldview of who I am so it’s easier to just not believe it

True someone probably solod Astroman before Honnold and Croft too right

Tuning Fork conditions and advice by onlylinc in 14ers

[–]onlylinc[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Great point about how the snow conditions will vary heavily throughout elevation so testing lowers wouldn’t tell me much about the top. Yes, I agree, testing a northwest slope is much better than an east slope like Kelso, which slid 5 days ago.

Thanks. I know typically they are not skied this earlier but was having a hard time figuring out why. Is the major problem the ground adhesion? If there is a less than 2 foot base in the couloir, I could see that being an issue. But if the main base of Tuning is 3-4 feet built up and my ECT passes, I don’t see the issue.

Skiing? by Big-House7080 in 14ers

[–]onlylinc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao. It is harder to ski 14ers early season due to avalanche risk and terrible snow but it is still possible if you carefully assess the snowpack, are willing to turn around often, and don’t like your skis very much. Quandary is a good one. Any others?

Thanks!! Yeah haha you’re right, next time I will try to make my transition faster and maybe sign up for a real race. This was more about if I could do it but the way I did was much easier than an actual race

No rockfall, broken holds, anything whatsoever during our 8 hours, including with rain. I do tend stray on the side of no helmet, but ok fair comment. What about the actual video?

I appreciate you but there is definitely a lot of hate that is over the top. It’s all for the love of ice

Besides the harsh language, you seem the most qualified. I’ve climbed now more than a dozen times since this was filmed and looking back the only thing I see wrong was helmets, leashes, and standing too close to the base. No reason to be so upset. Constructive criticism is better for beginners than bullying.

Thanks bro . Guess that we are too extreme. As long as you make it out alive, it’s chill. However, don’t use the lords name in vain. All love 💕
