Devils Tower is one of the coolest rock features ever.

That second pitch is probably the most physical 5.10 pitch i've ever done. I was SO worked by the time i got to the belay. Well done boys.

Many people think this is easy. Not me! 5.11a/b I think.

2피치는 키가 작은 클라이머가 스태밍으로 등반하기에는 쉽지 않아 보이네요. good climber~!

I'd love to see you place more nuts and chocks and quit trusting cams so much, because honestly you pass up a ton of fast, reliable nut placements and make a lot of untrustworthy cam placements. Talking not just about location but direction they'll be loaded if you fall. They are tools, not gadgets. They're not good just because they stay put when you stick 'em in the crack. I'm old enough to be your grandpa so I don't care if this makes you mad because I'm only concerned about your safety and survival. Point cams in the direction they'll be loaded in a fall and carry some longer runners for placements that could spin when the rope goes tight, so they'll stay pointed the right way and also reduce your rope drag. Elementary stuff that you probaby know but don't always practice. You climb like a charging bull and most of your cam placements are angled away from the fall line or even stuck in almost horizontally in verical cracks. Then you usually clip that directly or just hang a draw or short runner on it. Someday you're gonna pump off of something hard and take a terrifying fall, if you haven't yet. Please don't be that guy who gets hurt or dies because his cams unzipped. And when you see a good wire placement, use it even if you don't think you need it right then. It backs up your whole system and in the worst-case scenario, one solid wire nut placement can keep you alive and/or off the deck. Maybe your partner too. I hope you have a long, successful climbing career like I did. I'm done now but I still climb vicariously through watching young folks like you. Be smart and stay alive.

There is a fixed rappel route in multiple places throughout the tower. You can see it in my other video of this tower
