It's not climbing if you use footgear.

Then does barefoot trail running up like mt. Whitney or somewhere be considered a free solo?

Martha, I guess most who ask the questions are just lazy.

But maybe some just want the confidence that a direct response from a real person gives, rather than their own distilation of loads of web pages?


PS. Does it ever snow in Colorado in winter time?

If you are sitting here reading this stuff anyway, it's not like you have anything better to do. Answering the stupid question elevates you in several ways:

1) I helped out. Way to go!
2) I am smarter than that guy. Awesome.
3) Jeez, do I have to do everything around here?!? Man. I am indispensable.
4) Heh! It looks like I'm an expert in this outdoorsy topic. Womanly 3rd parties, check me out!

:oops:
