Trotter Does First Repeat Of The Prophet (5.13d R)
Tommy Caldwell wasn’t the only person hard at work on the flanks of El Capitan this fall
New 5.13+ Multipitch By Trotter & Caldwell In Canada
Sonnie Trotter and Tommy Caldwell have teamed up to establish a 15 pitch route up the Diamond Face on Mount Louis in the Canadian Rockies. Dubbed The Shining, the route has 7 pitches that were bolted on lead with difficulties up to 5.13+. After three days of prep the pair returned to free all the pitches in a single push:
It is one of the best routes I have ever climbed, and I could not imagine having a better partner for it. In fact, if it were not for Tommy, it would definitely still be a project. He’s my ultimate hero.
