Hey, I need reminding.
I've been hittin the gym all Winter and I'm all jazzed to
hit Positive Vibes this Spring.
Since I've got to lead all the pitches, I need to be prepared.
That second 5.11, off Pitch 6: If I have trouble with it, can
I pull through on gear?
Any detail beta concerning that spot would be appreciated. I'll
pull through if needed but bailing is worst case.
Happy Climbing.
Oh, and I'm sure to deliver a TR to the Taco.
So toast to my success!

Thanks, Chris.
The lower part (on Pitch 6, i.e.,) didn't concern me as much
as I've been told it's aidable. If necessary. Oh, oh...
Oh well, full steam ahead!

i lead every pitch of positive vibs last year, i don't think you can aid the first 11 part, or the second, well maybe the 6th pitch 11- part. but its hardly 5.11, i goes like this, first hard part, clip pin,traverse a little and place yellow tcu, then up to sidepull reach up and right to jugs, second part, up thining crack, place small cam,or cams, then crimp left to arete with maybe a shallow .75 then it's a bolted belay! have fun! it's a great route! shayd

I thought I remembered a bolted belay at the top of the second 11 pitch. I was sure the first time I did it there was, and last summer the bolts were gone. I knew I wasn't crazy, or just really forgetful.
