The Conundrum

FA Todd Battey and Todd Gordon, August 1988

Description

The Conundrum has the single hardest move I've ever successfully made on stone. Todd Battey lead the climb and got the crux move first try; once at the top, he belayed myself, Dave Stahl, and Rob Stahl for well over an hour as we all took turns , unsuccessfully , to make the crux move. After the three of us tried many times each, I finally got lucky and stuck it about on my 6th or so try. It's a tall man's problem too, which , I believe , helped Battey and I make the one very difficult move. This is a trad climb on the right side of the Frontier wall.
