We would have never imagined leading this in one pitch back in the 80's,90's- beautiful job. I've only had my memory up until now to try and remember what it was like; thanks for sharing and bringing me along- it was great. cheers
Thank you - so glad you enjoyed it.
What a great video. So much to learn from and observe, especially the tricky gear placements. Love the soundtrack too!
Thanks for that 😊
So glad to hear - thank you!
Great video - I'm 62 and would follow someone on it, but it takes me back to when I led it. †hanks for the experience.
Such a classic. Hope you have a chance to get back on it.
Did this climb back in '89. Thanks for the memory.
Nice!
Good memories of the I climbed this with a friend who has passed thanks for helping me relive it!
Condolences. Thanks for commenting.
There are somec things you remember - even if you did them in the 90s - and topping out on Arrow is one of them. And those bolts were there even back then. Thrilling climb.
Nice!
this is a joy to watch and the music is a perfect accompaniment!
Thank you!
Smooth!
Thank you.
sick thanks for making these. A pleasure to watch
Thank you. :) So glad you enjoy the videos.
nice climb and nice flow
Thanks very much.
Awesome videos! Just curious, what's your filming setup like to get this awesome POV?
Insta360 camera
Beautiful climbing! What cams did you double to link both pitches? As in what was on your harness not necessarily what you placed. Thanks for the content. I've followed along with your Rock Rescue Drill video so many times.
In the Gunks I typically double up .3-.5 Camalots. Enjoy!
very nice!
Thank you!
All in one long pitch nice, was it just a 70m rope?
No, but that would have been better. :) Even with my belayer positioned on the block at the start the rope came tight as I touched the chains.
is this on a drone with a insta360?
Insta360 on a selfie stick. No drone!
Looks like drone footage...
...yet it's not! :)
seems thin for a 5.8
juggy 5.8 crux off the GT and thin 5.8 crux right before the chains on P2. :)
I don't know if I can trust a guy who goes left at the crux. XD
Haha - I'll be sure to video the right line next time. ;)
Funny, I don't trust people who go right at the crux!
Go have a look at the ‘direct finish’ straight up after the crux of
_”Modern Times”_*
Thin gear then large cam & bush(escape Rt bombay/slot 5.7)
From bush at base of shallow corners {a well protected long reach; go up white cap stone w/clean streak thru lichen}Good holds & gear where you need👉😳GR8 View🗿🫣vertical exposure😄another ‘out-there’ climb at a ‘moderate’ grade is “Traverse of the Clods”
Nice! I haven't done the Modern Times variation. But I was recently featured in "Alpinst" magazine on a full two page spread on "Traverse of the Clods". Cool route! :)
