Desmochada Adventure!

Of course the weather arrived just as one partner was headed home, and Nate Opp and Whit Magro were still in transit from the States. Fortunately I was able to round up a partner--a young and eager Neil Kauffman--and climb a new route on Desmochada, laying great groundwork for our ultimate project, "The Wave Effect;" The steep, unclimbed enchainment of the south face of Desmochada, Silla, and Fitz Roy, the best link-up left in the range in my opinion.

Check out some photos, and details about out the climb on Neil's blog:

Some good weather is on the way, and we're excited by the possibility!
Hope you're all having a great finish to your winter.
Cheers!
