 Lead my first trad route this weekend and it kicked ass. Even took a ten footer on one of my pieces, held like a charm. Also setup a reppell on placed pieces too, another first. All in all a good weekend.

Thats great!!! Remember to equalize the first piece okay? If it zippers, thats where it starts. I'm glad you got your first one, woo-hooo!!!!!

It an was an onsite on an unestablished route in eastern Ky. I found a crack that fit the gear I had and sent it. It was a slightly overhung finger crack that was about 30 ft. Short but sweet. So I guess that would make it my route, huh?

Needs a name.
