| March 10, 1946 | 1. Herb Conn PMC | First Top Rope Ascent | In Up Rope 1946-06 (March 20, 1946) Herb climbs "the 'unclimbable' route a few feet to the left" of Jackknife. Since it is extremely unlikely that this was "Tomb of the Unknown Shoulder" (5.12), it is presumed this climb was Guillotine (5.9+) - seemingly harder than Herbie's Horror since this climb had been persistently recalcitrant to being climbed up to that point. |
