I saw different ratings depending on the source. I think that PG14 accurately describes the threat of what might happen if you fall. But… falling in those terrible spots was unlikely I think/hope.

You guys had me laughing out loud the whole time I was reading. Strong work, but in the mountains and writing! Encore!

I knew Putin was training: http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqcm8emeQN1qah216o1_500.jpg

Sure Putin _claims_ the Winter ascent. In 24 hours, Russia-to-Russia. And if I remember correctly he claims to have left a Matryoshka doll on the summit instead of signing the register. But did we find it up there? No, not quite, just like Putin is not quite yet president once again…

This is for pussies. President Putin soloed Bear creek spire wearing onle the GoreTex underwear. In winter.

Google has a better search engine, that’s why. Just type pullharder.org into line for the web address instead and it’ll take you straight there. :)

Gil, reading this as I am back in Rio… I have a strong love hate relationship with this place. I feel like a luke warm acai slushie, yet I am so strongly lured by the fantastic granite formations rising from the city and the sea surrounded by unbelievable women, music, and chaos… If this place is not my heaven, I am fucked. Well, I don’t know if I would go that far. Can’t wait to hang with you on our next adventure. Keep crushin’!

I like the recurring theme. In past experiences I have both bailed and perserved in the face of bees. Looks like you guys made the right choice!

Hi Gil, I am actually in bed at home reading your story, and felt relieved to get to the summit. the ascent was quick, and I felt the relief in being able to rest at the base. I am quite disappointed to end my trip in minutes, and bag you to take me on more pages and pictures, do not leave me in a period that it takes to warm up, I want more, took you more than 15 hours. Luv You, Dad

“If you have to ask, you’ll never know” Harsh but true. Congrats on the route and a wonderful couple of write-ups. Strong work!

Nice work Josh and Berto! Have you heard the story about Bridwell hanging out at Glacier Point. A tourist shows up with a noisy poodle. Bridwell told the tourist to shut the dog up, since it was ruining his moment. The tourist said, “you shut it up”. Bridwell responded by punting the dog over the edge.
