Repost from @vince.hope - Not only were Nate and I surprised that there was another climber on Quartz Crack today, but we were shocked to find out that this person was aid soloing the route! I immediately asked, “where are you from??” Because we haven’t met many (or any) people out east who are psyched on aid. Turns out, Andrew goes to UVM and just came back from a trip to Yosemite, and is psyched on aid. So now we want to be friends with him. Also, did he just get the first aid-solo ascent? To my knowledge, it has never been done before. Cool to see someone getting after it and getting psyched for big walls!! .
