Definitely epic!!!
And also in the day before pounding protection in rock was banned/no acceptable.
Not to take away from that great effort! Really pretty amazing.
My college roommate was a well known big wall climber, John Middendorf, who with his partner John Long soloed many routes. Started and sold a company A5 too. Did you guys ever meet?
Here’s a description of one if his climbs which required him sleeping every night on the sheer rock face in a hammock he invented.
“ the routes have been noted as "perhaps the hardest big-wall climbs in the world" (see Trango Towers). The 1992 new route required 15 days and nights to climb and three days to descend, using portaledges designed and constructed by Middendorf in his outdoor equipment company (A5 Adventures, Inc.)”
