Alex Honnold, 23, the extremely talented American climber over in the UK with a group of friends at the moment has made the third ascent of The Promise, James Pearson's short gritstone route at Burbage. The Promise received its second ascent last week from fellow American, Kevin Jorgeson, taking an hour to do so...........

What else as he done?

Hey James, it's Arthur (Dave's friend) from a few weeks back. How much longer you think Leavenworth will still be climable?

Alex,

Beautiful Job!!! You make all of us here in Sacramento proud!! It was also great meeting your mom at the Reel Rock Tour at Pipeworks and seeing you on film.

Keep up the great work! Climb hard and enjoy yourself over there in the UK.

Cheers,

Tom W.
