On December 17th, 2022, I completed my first multipitch rope solo. I decided to climb the Third Flatiron located in Boulder, Colorado. I attempted to follow the East Face Standard Route, which is easy 5.4 climbing. I had never climbed the route before and with the snow covered trails I didn't start at the East Bench. I started about 70m below. This along with other mistakes forced me to climb into the night. I decided to not climb to the summit but straight to the first rappel station (I believe this is called the left finish). I learned many lessons from this climb and the adventure that it provided was beyond expectation.
