A short film documenting Jonathan Siegrist on the first ascent of Idaho's hardest route, "Algorithm" 5.14d (9a), on September 8th 2012.
"I could not fall. I think by the end I was screaming at every move - more nervous than tired - but definitely tired. I clipped the chains with swollen forearms and bleeding tips. 'Algorithm' 14d was born. Idaho's hardest pitch, and one of the proudest F.A.s of my career." - Jonathan Siegrist

thatscandlepin Hmm. My wife's family lives in Brookfield, and I've scoped that place out a few times. Always thought a lot of the rock was choss, but apparently I didn't look close enough.
captainmo um ya... the way he does that move is freakin' wild looking... he drops his left knee and fires for it but it's tough to tell where he gets the momentum from. It's as if he's basically doing a one arm pull up...
bobs I'm not married to it. I thought I'd try out a new theme at the same time I did the software upgrade. Any body else have opinions about the new/old color scheme?

anyone looking to boulder after work Tues and Thurs around Norwalk/Danbury CT shoot me a message... Looking for reliable partners motivated to climb and get stronger.
thatscandlepin Kinda. It actually predicts where attractive women (hot chicks is not the preferred nomenclature, dude) will NOT be based on where they are photographed. I.E., a photo of an attractive woman at a crag definitively rules out the actual presence of one at the crag in the photograph.

rogerk Actually-true-no b.s. answer: Because you're not bouldering in Quebec.
