Shitting Razorblades

Went to Banks Lake for a weekend trip with Joe as it turned out I also got to meet and climb with Bob Loomis who drove out each day to climb. The first day we climbed Shitting Razorblades a route that saw its first ascent winter 06/07 and hasn't formed again until this season. Trip report from first ascent <LINK>  Joe was fortunate enough to have climbed it in 07. So when I told him I read online that it was in he said we should do it! Saturday morning we ran into Bob by the Cable and pressed on to Shitting Razorblades being a trio climbing it in three pitches made sense. We also climbed a line off of the second tier to the left. Here's a condition post I put on line <LINK> The next day we climbed at Pee Wee's and got back home in time for dinner. One of those trips that will stay with me!
