“Twelve, thirteen . . . I glanced at Fred and smiled. This could do it! Seventeen, eighteen . . . BANG! I had to squint to see the puff of white smoke near the base, thousands of feet below. The echo volleyed around the amphitheater, likewise our yelps. That rock just free-fell farther than Half Dome is high. No question about it, this was the record site. Fred pointed out the original launch spot, a quarter mile left and 300 feet below. We were home free. I chucked another rock and we watched it shrink to a pea. BANG! I tried to imagine strapping on a chute and plunging off, but it was too bizarre to get my head around.”

La espera fue como el sufrimiento en un crux, pero ya está aquí. "Climbing Free" uno de los libros recomendados para escaladores escrito por la única e inigualable Lynn Hill. Bueno para la mente, y bueno para el escalador lesionado presa del tiempo. @_linacolina_ #lynnhill #climbingfree #GregChild #JohnLong #climbing #rockclimbing #climbingbooks #essentials #memoir #bestseller #verticaworld
