Space Boys on her first day


Space Boys in an impressive route. Generally it is the first one that people stop at in the canyon. They ask "can I climb that?" It comes off, at first, as massive. Once the first 400 feet are tackled in two LONG 5.9 pitches the same person will say "oh we won't even be late for dinner". The subsequent pitches are 10a, 10d, 10b, 9, 9. Seven pitches and 1100 feet later sitting on top of the summit spire one reflects "there is no way this would be a grade three anywhere else in the world. What a good rock climb!"
Julie Schultz arrived in the morning at 11:00 AM and still managed to, with guide Beckett Honicker, climb this Mexico super classic and still be on time for dinner.
