1st ascent - Ueli Steck

Of One World Trade Center. "The day’s program involved taking a more conventional route, one with fixed handrails and established foot placements; that is, the stairs. The trailhead was in the basement...."

Couldn't go to the roof.... dude, the FA is still up for grabs, as far as I'm concerned.

Bail for weather, bail for time, bail for security guard.... a bail is a bail.
where am i going... and why am i in this handbasket?

I wonder what his time would have been solo? He is a machine from everything I've heard.
