does anybody knows something about the grade or ascents of the fabulous Jim holloway testpieces of mid 70ยดs, like Slapshot, Trice, A.H.R.,...
Iamato, there will be a feature/interview with Mr. Holloway in the June issue of Climbing Magazine addressing your exact questions. The Big 3 are: Slapshot, Trice, and Meathook. They are not as fabulous as they are just plain hard and unrepeated.
I'd like to see recent photos of some of his problems, not the same grainy shots taken almost 30 years ago that are on the web, might help to understand why they're unrepeated. Nonetheless, they were Vhard at a time when everything else was comparitively Veasy, no doubt he was ahead of his time.
