Top Roping Father Time on Middle Cathedral Rock (5.13b)

Type: Interesting

Description:
Here is some raw footage of me climbing Father Time (5.13b, 20 pitches) on Middle Cathedral Rock in Yosemite Valley taken by Elliot Bernhagen back in May. Its 22 minutes of straight climbing footy from the same angle so don’t watch the whole thing unless you really don’t have anything better to do in life. Elliot and a few others had been working the route so the second two 5.13 pitches were fixed at the time. I only led 5 pitches up to 5.11 on the route and Elliot rope gunned me up to the top of the first 5.13 pitch and we TR soloed the second one named “The Athletic 12c” before descending. I onsighted the route up to the first 5.13 pitch but was far from being able to climb the Athletic. It is an insanely high quality route that would be a dream to send perhaps someday in the future.
