looks loose and dangerous like all the other alpine routes in the sierra.

Hey David,
A first ascent with your son, that is so cool. Thanks for reporting in.
The pics are beautiful.

Nice one, David and Chase! Should have gotten a tow on that line.
For those who haven't seen it, check out David's book, Above All: Mount Whitney and California's Highest Peaks. I was lucky enough to tag along on a few of the trips.

Peter Haan,
David downplays. He may have let his offwidth skills rust, but I just watched him crushing 5.12 knobs in Tuolumne last weekend. At 215 lbs, he could probably shake an orangutan's hand and hold his own, still has laser footwork when he gets on the rock.

Needed to see an image like this one today. Just beautiful.
I'll second Tarek on the Above All book.
