Alex Honnold: Three Routes on El Cap in 24 Hours

By Rocky Thompson on July 7th, 2010

I ate some Indian food and rode by bike four miles in 100F heat. What did you do while Alex Honnold climbed a combined 85 pitches and 2,400 meters in 24 hours? Honnold and his climbing partner Sean Leary did a triple link-up of the Nose, Salathe Wall, and Lurking Fear. They began at 8pm with the Nose and were seen eating pizza on Curry Deck the next day at 8pm. Pizza and beer-all those empty calories.
