Hasn't voted | I think that rope would make it even more dangerous for the partner. We did not want to progress slowly and create anchors. It is actually not so bad! | | Posted Aug 7, 2009 1:21 am |
| lcarreau | I wish I could maintain | | 
Voted 10/10 | that much flexibility!
Did Matt continue to the summit?
Will you create a trip report on this one? | | Posted Aug 6, 2009 2:56 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks. Yes, Matt continued on.... Report? I am not sure yet.....but I know that I will go back. I find sitting on knife edge a perfect place for a meditation. | | Posted Aug 6, 2009 7:20 pm |

Voted 10/10 | Yes, and perhaps you deserve a cold bottle of rose after doing this?

Hasn't voted | Thank you again... this edge is so famous among people who hike Colorado fourteeners. I liked it very much and was surprised how easy it was to move along... I heard so many stories from other climbers, and had this scary imagination, but it was just fun... | | Posted Sep 9, 2009 12:56 am |

Hasn't voted | Thanks, it is the best fourteener in Colorado (fourteneer = 14,000 foot mountain). They got over 54 peaks in Colorado, and I am still missing 5 to climb.
I think that I have this photo on facebook...haha | | Posted Oct 29, 2009 8:58 am |
| Dean | Ah, no thanks... | | 
Voted 10/10 | John Kirk tells it like it is and for me, that is enough. Still, it makes a great picture even if it makes me a bit uneasy for that person. | | Posted Nov 14, 2009 11:18 am |
| | Liba Hardekopf | Re: Ah, no thanks... | |
Hasn't voted | There is a video of a guy running it... that it pretty crazy. It was not very windy at that moment... | | Posted Nov 15, 2009 9:26 am |

Voted 10/10 | Is that video on U tube? I'd love to see that one. Running it? Yikes. | | Posted Nov 15, 2009 9:55 am |
