My first time up there after 30m of these easy moves I felt like I might pass out. All in all it feels about E6 in British trad grading. I don’t really know what technical grade it would get, maybe E6 4c is going a bit too far... <br />CheersDan McManushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999676923865299584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712634526544256928.post-23033519148417141792019-03-22T15:21:53.977-07:002019-03-22T15:21:53.977-07:00Hello Dan,

I have no idea if I will have the chance to climb in Yosemite one day (I live in France and have already few lifetimes of climbing available here!) But your post made me travel in your adventure and this amazing route. Really interesting to read your insights and experience :)<br /><br />Could be wrong but I believe there's a small typo in the grade of The monster pitch. The post mentions E6 4c, isn't it E6 6c?<br /><br />Again thanks for writing this and sharing!<br /><br />All the best and wish you great climbs,<br />Paul(r)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16800067174112931540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5712634526544256928.post-35346067429136708942019-02-16T11:48:39.468-08:002019-02-16T11:48:39.468-08:00Thanks James.

A great insight into the grades involved - so thanks for this. The film is amazing - and for him to have do ALL this in 4 hours in frankly mind boggling. The footage they got of him on the Boulder problem and the long corner (and frankly all of it) is jaw dropping.

I knew there was a good chance he’d do it, but I’m still amazed by it. While the route isn’t super hard ‘on paper’ some of the pitches don’t lend themselves to soloing in my opinion. Take the enduro-corners, only given around 12b, but are very exposed, slippery and insecure. <br />I hope you have a trip to Yosemite at some point, if you haven’t already. There’s a lifetime of brilliant climbing from boulders to big walls. Get in touch if need any advice on climbing there.

I found your post while learning about Alex Honnold's recent achievements. Reading your post helped put his efforts into context. It also, for me at least, helps make the connection between: a) this and climbing a v8 boulder problem and b) what seemed unimaginable, but is perhaps quite practically possible. If (when) I one day follow in his footsteps and yours - slower, safer, but with a similar view and experience - it will because of your post.
