The first 11 pitches were established ground up by Leo Houlding, but when he reached El Cap Tower he couldn't find a way to continue. Almost 20 years later Tommy Caldwell and Alex Honnold worked out a line and took the route to the top of the crag, keeping Leo's original name. Alex and Tommy apparently placed some bolts to protect parts of the run-out pitches Leo had climbed. [2] In an unusual quirk, on pitch 4 Leo was unable to find a way past a short blank section of wall. To make the route possible, in an aid bolt hole he bolted on an Alfa Romeo badge (which used to belong to a car owned by Tim Emmett when he worked as a sales rep. for DMM) to the wall which could be used as a hold to pass the section. Caldwell and Honnold were able to climb this free by a slightly different line. Many pitches free the aid route New Dawn (A2+).

Probably unclimbed. Initially a grade of 8A+/B was suggested but no one has been able to repeat it despite many attempts from strong suitors. The discrepancy between the proposed difficulty and the actual difficulty, combined with Gaskin's history of unsubstantiated ascents suggest this one is unlikely to be possible at the proposed grade. |
