Hi Guys,

The boys are on Salathe, and there was a photo of them posted on ElCapReport.com yesterday.

lol. The inflatable doll didn't make the final cut during gear selection so she's in my closet. Along with the strap on boobs.

The photo is by Tom Evans.

Apparently the route is very congested and is seeing a lot of traffic right now, making for slow going.

Very cool! Nice work boys!

I will live vicariously through them in the comfort of my office chair.
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.

Really Cool!

But I'm a little confused by the picture. How is it that Burley is seconding a pitch when all four of them are at the anchors?

Lol. Good one. I was talking to Erick after having posted this, and he said he's not actually in the picture. The dude in the red shorts was part of a two man team that was free climbing the route, and when this photo was taken, Erick was higher above. And here I thought Erick bought the red shorts in San Fran. :)

and I had thought Erick must have borrowed Rosie's helmet (the leader looks like he has the same one as you Rose)...
