    In awe of this level of climbing. I've done some Yose big wall #climbing but this is orders of magnitude beyond. Love that she has 2k+ of air under her heels. From YCA: "Lots of weather in Yosemite this week and last: snow, rain, and sustained cool temps. I’ve been in touch with Sasha DiGiulian and Elliot Faber as they’ve hunkered down on El Cap—and have now been on the wall for more than two weeks—working the Direct Line (aka the Platinum Line), a 39-pitch 5.13d/14a that parallels the Nose."

    Hauling isn't just for big walls; pulling up your pack on a small diameter cord can be a lot nicer than having it on your back. Here's a great way to set up an ergonomic hauling system that's simple, fast, and lets you lift with your legs, not your arms.

    So this happened today. I fell off a route, rested a bit, and made my way back up. The rope was still under tension, and as I moved up and over, my belay loop brushed past the draw and clipped into it Sounded like someone else clipping a draw so I didn't think twice about it, until I became stuck on the wall [image: 1736047528647-1000006768-resized.jpg]
