On Sunday I was leading on The Bard in the one 10 min block of solid rain we had all day. The rock was
slippery and the rope heavy which lead to my .05 Wild Country Friend walking all the way up into a crack
until just the very tip stuck out.
So for all of those of you who were concerned that the easiest and last pitch of Bard had no fixed gear
shortly before topping out, rejoice!
Everyone else, my apologies for not jamming it in the crux or halfway along the traverse.
