Ahh good.. I was beginning to think you were not doing an El Cap wall there for a minute.

If your hands ain't thrashed and you ain't sore all over.. one thing is for sure.

You ain't doing a wall.

If all is comfy and secure.. you might be rafting the merced, hangin out in the meadow, sittin on a beach sippin a martini or sumthing

According to the pictures you are on a BADASS route SOLOING a badass El'cap wall.

Based on your last report I am finally beginning to believe that is the case :)

Awesome WORK

I might have coined the phrase

Wall climbing is kinda like fun... but different.

This TR is sweet! It makes my work day at the office very much more interesting. Keep it up Mark, I am jealous! I bet Iron Hawk will see more ascents thanks to your TR and cleaning... I am wondering: how deep are your 3/8 holes?? Only those are such tiring job. You are my hero!
