Nobody has tried to flash 'sixty-nine' yet that I am aware of. If you think you're up to the challenge I have the rack and beta for ya.

Johnny2vests: cool suggestion. I'll check it out!

Hevyduty: Er.... Unfortunately yes.

Re 69; definitely on the list. Looks brilliant.

Anyone care to predict the likelihood of a Cobra Crack flash?

I'll bet it's a decade away at least.

The only hard one I have been on in the range you are looking for is Zap Crack in the Valley of Shaddai, up and over the ridge behind where 69 is. It is a short, steep, beautiful 12d hidden in the woods. Fingers, thin hands, and I remember one hand jam at least. Jer Blumel's list of new school cracks is on point. The Prow Wall on the Chief should be hit up for sure. Ohh ya, and the North Walls. That's where the big boys and girls play.


The must do amazing long route to do would be The Shadow, originally graded 13b by Peter Croft. The amazing overhanging stem corner pitch has been repeated numerous times but the upper hard 12c corner has not as everyone sticks to the regular University Wall route up there. Do the complete full real meal deal.
