This route feels a level harder than 50 words left and lucifer, both well established 14c’s. That makes it 14d and one of the most difficult in the states. Adam, a RRG local and very modest person, works it for a long ass time and snags the FA over an impressive list of “pros” including chris sharma.

I don’t see a bad taste in any of that. In fact, it tastes so good Lifetime already bought the movie rights.

Did you really need to give this guy any press. He is the OJ Simpson of climbing.

Yeah, dude is killing it. Definitely cool to see what happens as more uber-strongmos spend extended amounts of time at the Red.

“harming the rock”? go give it a hug if you feel bad for it. removing bolts did less damage than adding new ones. i fell dumber just reading this. and i ain’t smart, i cant afford to be much dumber.

So is putting bolts into the rock in the first place.

Well put Niles. It’s very cool to read/see people taking things to the next level at the Red.

50 words is water under the bridge at this point.
Luckily, everyone who was involved is out sending strong and enjoying everything the Fall has to offer for climbing.
I know not many so called “red locals” would encourage this, but I think everyone needs to come down here and see how awesome the climbing is…this place is legit and has tons of hard routes left to develop.
This is just the beginning

@dan,

taking a hammer to some bolts still harms the rock. Either way, Adam’s ethics are a bit off base.

Seems to me he didn’t so much disrespect the rock as the extra bolts…
Not that that’s much better, but it’s not like he was going around chipping holds off or anything.

I still get a bad taste in my mouth when I hear his name. Its great that he opened a new route and all but I just don’t have respect for someone who doesn’t respect the rock.

50 words for chump was hilarious. I had to read back to see what the controversy was. I remember it, but I never heard the song. Sweet lyrics.
