- Description:
- After successfully climbing the Petit Grepon the previous day, Jeff
and I decided to do a quick climb of "Young and the Rackless" in Boulder
Canyon. I have been up the route three times before but always led
the easier pitches (1 & 4). Today I led the harder pitches 2 & 3
without too much difficulty. I hesitated briefly at what I
consider two of the three cruxes, but generally did pretty good working
my way through the moves. We broke the route into 4 pitches so I
could lead the harder sections so it took us 1 hour and 50 minutes
car-to-car. If we do it again, I think we will bring a lot of
draws and link pitches 1&2 and 3&4 since we both can now lead the whole
route.
