2011 24 Hours Of Horseshoe Hell

Last weekend 250 crazy people climbers spent 24 straight hours clipping bolts at Arkansas' Horseshoe Canyon Ranch for the aptly named 24 Hours Of Horseshoe Hell.  Nate Drolet and Brent Perkins won by setting a new event record, amassing 56,370 points across a combined 205 routes between 5.9 and 5.12d.  Full results can be found here and a write-up by event sponsor Petzl is here.  Big ups to Wisconsin climbers Pat and Ellen who logged a very respectable 163 routes!

    Had an excellent time, very inspiring to see so many people still climbing at 7am...21 hours after the comp started! Great memories!

    Props to a Southern Illinois climber, Phillip Carrier, for breaking the record for most climbs completed within the 24-Hour time limit.
