And speaking of jumping….Pine Creek without ropes

Since some recent threads have mentioned jumping, I thought I would point out that here was the most recent entry/log that someone added to my page on Pine Creek:

Anway, did someone really jump all those drops? Sounds scaaaarrry!

    Seems like I remember Judd telling me that he and Murray did it sans rope a few years ago as well. I’m not positive though. Ram would probly know for sure.

One other guy in tow (at least the the account I was told by his partner.) The first would go down, scout the drop, clear the logs, and then the cowboy would jump. Last rappel was downclimbed on the left LDC.

    Yep. Pine creek has been done ropeless. The cathedral was apparently 8 feet deep, with logs floating. Joe did in fact make the jumps.
