Two years ago a 22 year old Will Stanhope unlocked the crux moves of this rarely attempted A4 route at Murrin Park, in Squamish, BC. This (low res) clip captures one of his numberous attempts to free the climb, at 5.14 R.

While Willy was growing stronger on each day this September, the weather was closing in on his chances. The recent rainfall this week has left the climb seepeing from it's tiny cracks, and Stanhope is left with two choices; Drink lots of Scotch and suffer through October waiting for a "possible" good day, OR jump in the van with me, drink slightly less Scotch (but not by much) and climb lots of big walls in Yosemite!

Gunslinger AkA The Indian Arch Project will still be waiting come Springtime, and there's nowhere for it to hide when Sir William returns. Stay tuned. Enjoy the short teaser.
