    Josh Wharton is the most accomplished alpinist you've never heard of. But while he's been quietly crushing ambitious objectives to little or no fanfare, fatherhood, and warming weather have begun to reshape the world he knew. When Wharton and his climbing partner Vince Anderson attempt to take the 2003 Italian route to the summit of J... https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/t.php?n=776783

    Janja Garnbret is the best competition climber of all time—yet she says her coach, Roman Krajnik, is her secret weapon. We caught up with Krajnik to ask about that. https://www.climbing.com/people/why-janja-garnbret-says-her-coach-makes-winning-even-remotely-possible/

    Last weekend I took a couple friends to the local crag for their first time out. Since I was the only one able to clean, others led and set the anchor, but on occasion if the leader were unable to reach the anchors, I would set the anchor and belayed the others up from the top using a grigri. That worked pretty well, though I'm aware that Petzl doesn't recommend using the grigri in such a manner (a redirected belay is preferred.) I did notice that the DMM Pivot set up in guide/auto-blocking mode had a dedicated method for lowering — using a second biner to adjust the angle of the device. Are there concerns with doing so for lowering a second climber all the way to the ground? Whenever lowering is mentioned, it's always in the context is lowering the second "a few feet" or so.
