Kanab makes Youtube!
Yea I'm like super bored and I found this on the tube. Didn't know Kanab was part of Zion but I guess its all sumantics. Special note; Dude in film is not me, and no I would not have the stones to Solo the Kanab Cicle aka Pork U Pine Flow aka only ribbin of ice for miles.
If you can't tell, I can't wait for ice season. I think there is a very good reason why the film cuts off where it does. Dude pooed himself as he realized he was 30 feet off the deck with no rope.
WHATS THE CRAZIEST THING YOU'VE SOLOED? OR SEEN SOMEONE SOLO?A good mountaineer dies in his bed.
I'm always looking for rock or ice route info and a partner.

Insanity. This is the craziest thing I have seen.

I'd have to agree that the Dan Osmon clip is one of the craziest. I don't do free solo...I like life too much

soloed the great white icicle in little cottonwood canyon in around 79 or 80. soloed denali in 82 and 84, summited in 84 from 14,000 round trip in 11 hours. not really a big fan of soloing. so much to lose and so little to gain.
that clip of osman is unreal. i did that route in 80 and he makes it look so easy. it is a lovers leap classic.But if I agreed with you, we would both be wrong.

Geez, tryin' to think...done some soloing...none of it that crazy. Did the GWI in LCC for the first time, lightly dressed, early season. Got a shower at the top, and the ice was flexin' under my weight, but, since it was my "on sight" I carried on (foolishly, perhaps, but, seemed ok at the time). Used to solo it a bunch, but, have known a number of fairly good climbers blow it too. So, now I try to scare up a partner even if I don't place much pro...
