Yosemite Bouldering: Park Life

Yosemite Bouldering: Park Life

07. Aug, 2008 3 Comments

While waiting for the temps to dip below 95 we did the tourist thing around Lower Yosemite Falls.  During the course of walking along the paved trail we came across Tim Clifford’s testpiece Park Life (V12).  How any of the grips on this problem qualify as holds is beyond me.   You can check out Tommy Caldwell and/or Randy Puro levitating their way up this problem in Dosage 5.  Here is a picture of Tim Clifford himself on the problem:

    @Peter – in order to lose a shoe sponsor you need to have one in the first place :)

    @Phil – no kidding. i couldn’t conceive of how one even establishes on that dihedral
