Explosions in the distance were going off as I rolled out of bed at 1:00 AM on a Sunday. That might be the only time in my entire life I have been annoyed by the 4th of July. Much as I do not usually mind a bunch of high-schoolers lighting off fireworks in the middle of the night, it was an annoyance when trying to catch some sleep before a big day. The concert and midnight bedtime the night before were not helping either.
Oops. I guess that one is on me.
I silently reminded myself that if Andrew Hamilton can climb 58 peaks in 10 days on basically zero sleep (a record which was in progress during our climb), I could slog up Glacier Gorge for some rock fun on 1 hour of it. Besides, this is the park we are talking about. As Dillon is always keen to remind me, there are no bad days in the park. No arguments here. Keep reading....
At least when there is no snow and you spend 1.5 hours hoping over VW size boulders and gaining less than a mile. Looks like you guys caught it in perfect approach conditions though.
Nice job. That’s such a sweet route with great exposure. A hell of a way for Dillon to pop his alpine cherry too!
Dillon, First Flatiron to Sharkstooth? Great work man! Also, I’m pretty sure everybody ends up doing that stupid 5.whateverit’sratedbutnoteasyandnotonroute pitch 3.
is pretty sick Zambino! Dave, Ryan, and Brian - thanks guys! It was awesome!
