I will be in Yosemite starting August 2 and staying for about a week. I'm going with some occasional hikers who never climb and only one knows how to belay a toprope so I need a few suggestions on topropes in the Valley close to the campsites if possible. I don't know if this exists but if I can find a way to climb there I am going to even if its a short toprope.
I don't think I'll have a chance to lead climb but does el Cap have any good routes where the first pitch is either free or aid or both but could be rapped with a single rope? I can't help but be interested in climbing at least one pitch on it. Just a start to climbing the whole thing.
I know a few people who climb Yosemite a lot but I figured more opinions couldn't hurt. Any suggestions would be great.
