In 1987 the Smith Rocks were a gathering place for the world's best climbers. Routes like "To bolt or not to be", "East face of Monkeyface", "Scarface" or "Rude Boys" represented the new standard of sport climbing in America.

I love it that you concluded the video with a visit to Juniper Junction for ice cream! That was the 80's at Smith!

Soooo did you finish the route? You left out the slab which was kinda scary and runout

Sure I finished it, I have an uncut version, but thought it would be too boring to show the full version. The slab was not that big of a deal, in those times we were used to runouts, from climbing in the Dolomites and Southern France. In 1987 the challenge were the hard moves in the lower part, Rude Boys was among the hardest routes in NA and had only a handful of red point ascents. I know that in actual times that’s considered “easy rubbish”, as Pete Livsey used to say about some routes in the Dolomites. I wouldn’t have published the video if I hadn’t done the route!

@@heinzmariacher1754 Bravo. Its been about 20yrs. since i did it and i remember the rope drag on the slab made it pretty tricky. Great send!
