"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

The Sting, 5.10bRWith Zach from Ontario. Both 5.10b pitches seemed soft for Yosemite. The 5.10a traverse pitch was the most interesting. The run out was not "X" as the guide suggests and was not bad at the top of the long 4th pitch. There was gear here and there as you meandered up low angled ground. A bit better than Hoodwink, but neither route was stellar by any means.
