Peyton on El Capitan
Today’s update by Tom Evans and Keith Thompson over at Supertopos.com:
Zodiac: The NC boys are putting on a clinic!! Yesterday the made it to the start of the Nipple and by the time I got there today they were just finishing up cleaning the Nipple. The light was nice and I got some sweet shots of them. When I left they were headed for Peanut Ledge and that was around 2pm. So they will most likely be off today late. A really nice ascent. I noticed that they were in and out of the belays in 5 to 10 minutes and that sure doesn’t hurt the time on each pitch!
Peyton is on the bottom here:
