Jack, I have a steep overhanging roof that is waiting to be sent out here. I'll bolt it, you send it? Then we could go down the road to some super thin 70 deg overhanging face climbs? How bout that? I'll even let you use my rusted blade to cut your rope...

It is in the Rockies, but the big overhang mentioned just above is not Limestone. It's a sandstone you could almost describe as a pseudo-quartzite.

I'll tell you after I get the FA.
There are monster walls up here. It just happens that most are not close to the road, some are though. I know of a wall that is overhanging for the last 6 pitches of the only direct route on it. The route has yet to be repeated let alone freed. Regardless, one wold have to aid it before a free accent anyways. I say this because I know the reputation of the FA, and guaranteed and extensive retro bolting of the original 70's hardwear would be needed. We plan on making the first serious attemp at a repeat. I jsut need to find the time... as the bery talented climber who FA's it took over a week on the wall.

Sounds impressive... They involve an overhang. So that means aid if you're climbing it. Right? Zing! There is a direct finish we "may" aid yes. But there is one section I think I may be able to free at about 5.9 or 5.10a maybe, it's quite possible that the section I'm looking at may infact be closer to 5.13a in which case, yes I'll be aiding. The direct finish will likely be A3 or 5.12something-or-other. One of my partners did just discover a massive roof we will be setting up some aid routes on. MMMMMMmmmmmmmmm aid So how big are these roofs? I think they'll overhang about 10 to 15m, but to get to the weaknesses that you can pull over the roof you'll have to aid about 40m along and overhanging arch that makes up the lower section of the roof. Old man Jack is going to show up at your secret crag and steal your FA's. Is Jack even allowed in Canada? Nice try... Where did you say this wall is? It's in Canananananananada I got that. I've already found a flight to Calgary, I can be there in a few days. Now where exactly is this monster overhanging wall? I'll tell you after I get the FA. There are monster walls up here. It just happens that most are not close to the road, some are though. I know of a wall that is overhanging for the last 6 pitches of the only direct route on it. The route has yet to be repeated let alone freed. Regardless, one wold have to aid it before a free accent anyways. I say this because I know the reputation of the FA, and guaranteed and extensive retro bolting of the original 70's hardwear would be needed. We plan on making the first serious attemp at a repeat. I jsut need to find the time... as the bery talented climber who FA's it took over a week on the wall. So at most it should take you a week.
With good weather, yes.
