Well when the message came through on my phone from a unknown number and read:

Big crack day wednesday? Bring your A game bro.

it could only be the one and only CRAZY JOHN (John Fischer). So it was on! I picked John up at 7am the weather was a perfect. we were both amped for a big day, me maybe more so because I am off to Yosemite in just over a week. BRING IT ON.

So our new multi pitch reads some thing like this:

Split Column 19 35 meters
Holiday in Cambodia 21 35 meters
Ultrasound 24 35 meters
Sandybay rd 18 35 meters
Daedalus 20 55 meters
Icarus 20 80 meters
Tartarus 21 60 meters
Sky Rocket 20 55 meters
Potem Tole 19 50 meters
Galah Performance 20!!! 20 meters
Resurrection Shuffle 21 30 meters

it was an 11 hour day and we lead all climbs with John starting with Split Column and so on. 28 stars, 490 meters (nearly half of El Cap!). It was a no fall day (just!!). Galah Performance being short and sweet turned out to be the crux. we warmed down by head touch on Resurrection Shuffle. This was one of the coolest days I have had on the pipes, the only bad thing is that is daylight savings and we didn't head over to lost world to do the direct finish of Atlantis, Cruise Air and Savage Journey. Next time...

Cheers
Jake
