James Lucas So odd. I drove to Moonlight and talked to Alex and he had soloed. He soloed the Phoenix and Cosmic Debris...all my projects. today I climbed on the UWall and saw @alexhonnold On the way down. In the shade, just below the second power line, @alexhonnold solos the U-Wall. I took a picture of @smashits at the same spot a few hours earlier.

Free solo U wall?
Probably not a whole lot more stressful than soloing the Northern Lights. Alex has some serious skill and mental control. Amazing.
I sure love my mountain bike.

I don't know. He was did that interview down in Boulder right after he left Squamish. He was talking about the 290 pitches he did at Squamish for his 29th birthday. Most of it sounded pretty social for him. Lots on the Apron I think, no mention of U Wall.

James's post is from yesterday so he probably flew to boulder and he's now back in squish. This happened yesterday according to James Lucas. See my post above.

its like i told my wife,
this morning in regards to our impending separation;

"not until you've experienced my
void will your realize how big of a space i fill"

and no, it has nothing to do with sex.
