Voted 10/10 | Excellent info, especially on how to get there. Could you post some photos and some info on your rescue, since the AAJ 86 isn't available electronically. Enjoyed reading your summit log. 12/3/02 Update: Fantastic page. Great photos and route descriptions. Changed my vote to 4 stars. | |

Hasn't voted | Yes to all your requests. I haven't even started to finish this page - please give me 'till the end of next week, then re - visit and re-rate it as you see fit. I will be busy scanning photos over the weekend, and placing them on this page next week. Along with maps, links and if I can get it to work - books! And the other routes on the South Tower.

Voted 10/10 | Wow Craig. Just finished reading your incredible trip report. Thank you so much for creating this page, routes, photos, and TR for this site. I've thoroughly enjoyed it. You are an incredible climber. It is stories like these that have inspired so many young people to take up climbing, and have a respect for the power of mother nature. Martin | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks to all of you at Summitpost. You have re - energized me to get back into big walls, and re - train in order to do an ascent of El Cap ( my 6th ) for my 50th birthday in 3 years ( and 2+ months ). And I'll be doing a couple of training walls to boot between now and then! I'm calling it my " mid life crisis "! Thanks for letting me share. Craig | |

Voted 10/10 | Great page Craig! Amazing adventure you guys got up to back then! Your partner on the East Face climb, Dave Davies, is of course still an active member of the South African climbing scene and is seen out in the hills often. | |

Hasn't voted | Good for you guys! I want to take my fiance down there also to hike, so I can see all the things I missed seeing after my accident. It is a gorgous and wild place. And there aren't friendlier, better people than the Chileans! They told me I was destined to return - I think they're right! Craig | |

Voted 10/10 | Might I suggest adding some Lat/Lon values for this peak so it'll show up in the SP Map Tool ;-)? Using the tool, I think I was able to roughly pinpoint this peak at (Lon/Lat) = (-72.980, -50.942) | |
