Lucifer (5.14c) Repeated (Again) By Adam Taylor

In a post summarizing what sounded like a pretty miserable Labor Day weekend weather-wise at the Red River Gorge, the folks at the Team Saucisson blog casually dropped the fact that low key local Adam Taylor repeated Lucifer (5.14c).  Taylor had previously done many of the Red’s other hard routes like Pure Imagination (5.14d) and his route Golden Ticket (5.14d).

Update:  Well, I jumped the gun a bit as Taylor was simply repeating Lucifer again, not for the first time.  Thanks to Eddie for helping to set me straight.

Bad Girls Club (5.14d) Repeated By Jonathan Siegrist

Not long after its FA by Matty Hong, Jonathan Siegrist has, according to my spies, done the 2nd ascent of Bad Girls Club (5.14d) in Rifle, CO. More details to come, I’m sure, on Siegrists’ excellent blog.

Update:  As expected, Siegrist has posted about the send which came on his 8th try:

3 rests, nearly a hundred moves and 17 bolts later, I was clipping chains. Very pleased. First and foremost, Joey Kinder deserves a shout out – he put in tons of effort on this thing, cleaning it up, equipping it and giving it love. (sorry I doubted you man! this is a RAD addition, and a worthy Colorado test-piece). Secondly, Matty Hong – a really impressive effort… Matty has become a true king of this style, having done almost every hard route in the canyon, psyched for you man!

Update 2:  Siegrist also sent The Crew (5.14c) and talks about both sends in this interview with Rock & Ice
