Climbers talk about Golden Years being up for grabs as a first ascent. Golden Years is not a route to be "bagged" The first ascent party worked on the route for over a year red-pointing every pitch. The entire route was not led continuously without falls. But every pitch was. Yes better climbers may nail the entire route with no falls but it would be an ego trip and a sham to claim a "first ascent" of Golden Years. It is a masterpiece by great climbers in the early 90's.
