It's supposed to be a bit on the rough side, but I think I'd rather do that than rap 2500 feet. You should read the TR's of the North Dome Gully descent. Also, you often end up rapping on that descent anyway! FWIW, a lot of people end up saying they much rather would have rapped down. I think rapping CJ would be alright in the light (probably less than 10 raps) and then you could either rap the arches or go for the NDG, depending on you felt. I don't know, I hear from a lot of folks that NDG isn't so bad, so long as you don't have to onsight it in the dark. People do it with pigs, so it can't be that heinous. It gets done in less than 45 minutes by people who know it. Well, yeah, but we'd be onsighting it. Linking RA--CJ in a day in winter it would be dark, no doubt about it. I guess hiking up it is a good way to go, so you know the way down afterward. Here's the plan Eric and I have: Do RA first day (don't have to start at 6am like everybody is always doing); bivy at the top of RA (get fresh water); we will have sleeping bags and Eric has an ultralight tent, so the cold won't be a problem; stash gear near CJ start the next day, where we'd rap back into; then, after the route, we'd either rap RA or maybe do the NDG, depending on daylight left to figure out that path and how we feel about the raps. We'd be a bit heavy on RA, but I don't anticipate that being the biggest deal. For the slab of CJ, we'd be much lighter. A tent?!?!? you guys are out of your minds. That's exactly why you should do it in a day, so you don't have to take all that bullshit and you can just enjoy the climbing. That's exactly why we're bivying, so we don't have to worry about epicing in the dark and can enjoy the climb! Trust me, we already packed it to see what it would be like and it's not the pig you seem to think we're hauling. Eric likes his ultralight alpine gear, so the tent is as light as it is expensive. We won't be carrying "the pig" on CJ anyway, so I'm not too worried about it. You've got to remember that neither Eric or I have done RA to know how fast we'd go on it. He and I doing the linkup in the shortening days is unrealistic and has "epic" written all over it. But it sounds like you want to link RA to CJ in a day soon? I'd be game to try it with somebody who has been up RA before. I don't have plans to do it currently, just some day soon. Likely not this season. I'm just not in to climbing with a pack. sleeping bag plus tent, no thanks, even if they are super tech. If you do it in a day and get a ride off the back you only need one rope too. It's all about laziness, zeke. Well, speed and laziness. Climbing with a pack is a bitch. See photo below of Evan near the end of Venusian Blind Arete.

Personally, I really like driving in the Bay Area. It favors the aggresive driver.

She's even into the idea of moving back to CO, which would make the lifestyle easily attainable.

It makes him come across a bit needy (not sure if that's the right word). No offense, but you guys are just words on a screen to me. If you don't like me, I'll just go hang out with real people. Somebody said it earlier, not caring and not trying so hard actually go a long way toward being a better internet entity.

You guys commute to Smith Rock, or what? I live in SE Idaho. I'm 2 hours to City of Rocks and Castle Rocks, and only 3 to the Tetons and SLC, so there are options. Massacre Rocks is only 45 minutes away. It stays warm pretty late. We're actually going there next weekend. I've only been climbing about 6 months, so anything over about 5.9 sport is worthless to me anyway.
