I want a community heli-cam. We can prioritize use the same way astronomers share a remote telescope. Every so often it flies down to a mountain bike enthusiast who recharges it by a few minute's pedaling.

So we decided to push the push to a siege. Turns out it gets dark pretty early this time of year, which makes climbing multiple pitches a day hard. TKC took longer than anticipated for the roof pitch, and got scared of bathooking in the dark. I got frustrated with the slow progress, as I was comparing aiding to free climbing, and Brownie just didn't care.
So we came down. However the high point is fixed, and luckily there aren't usually lineups for this route.

Lightweights.
Wayno and I are about to head north. It's 8 pm now, so I figure we'll be parking the car below the Chief about midnight. Probably take us a couple of hours to hike to base and jug your lines, so what's that? About 02:00? Somtehing like. And given that you guys probably won't get up until 08:00, and then you'll spend another two hours over breakfast, and at least an hour after that just getting yourselves to the base, we'll have plenty of time.
In fact, I reckon we'll probably be up and over the top by the time you guys get anywhere near your fixed ropes, so everything will probably look just like you left it, and you won't even be able to tell that we aced you.
F*#kin' kids...

We always used to do that in winter, if you could only afford single ski touring boots. Thin sock, plastic bag, warm thick sock. Kept your feet warm. Only downside is that the inner sock got damp, and had to be dried/changed daily.
