Does in the body count? Or does it have to be in the haul bag?

Yeah, whiskey makes sense. More bang, less weight. It would be cool to have a haul bag cooler though with dry ice. Then just toss it off the zod with all the empties. It might get bootied though for all that deposit money. ;-)

You guys are light beyond belief. True hardmen could drink so much beer on the ground that they didn't even have to climb El Cap.

Good thread.
When I was lugging gear for the show on New Dawn, Jon had a large backpack full of a couple cases of beer.
I know that was supplemented by at least 3 bottles of wine and various hard stuffs.
Still, I have heard tales of Ammon's "All Beer Ascents" and if you included pre hike libations I am sure he has the record :D

All I know is Mike Flood did the first S7 on El Cap. He didn't sh#t for 7 days! Just drank beer the whole time. Not sure how many he had up there with him though....

I'd have to say Burton and Sutton always had a fairly good stash... can't say how much, but you can be sure they never ran out. I never took count on how many we had when ever we went up there together, but it was definitely the bulk of our haul bag weight.

Thread drift: how about the record for hard liquor before a 20' boulder problem?

Ammon and I took up quite the load on my first big wall and El Cap route: Mescalito. I believe it was 66 cobras.
