Hard to beat laying back in the field looking up at El Capitan trying to find the climbers. If you hit the field early in the morning you can find the climbers still in their tents hanging off the side of the granite.

It's an interesting way to climb. Keep switching lead as you run out of gear. One uses and the other collects while both are moving.

Doing that is right up there with things like flying in a wing suit or base jumping.

Kevin, that Trap Dike video is mildly reminiscent of the climb up Katahdin's Knife Edge. I did it on two separate occasions in my yout'. But I suspect I no longer have the nerve for anything like that. About ten years ago I faced similar terrain on Angel's Landing in Zion NP -- and I bailed.
I never really got into technical climbing, closest I ever got was some drop-rope climbing at local hangout one summer, ages ago. Not really my thing, but fun to watch. I love reading Jon Krakauer's climbing stories.

If you don't have a map telling you your lost how can you be lost?
