In January 2008, Black Diamond grassroots athlete Jesse Huey partnered with Toby Grohne to make an ascent of the famed Cassarotto Pillar on Patagonia’s Fitzroy. Near midway on the climb, Huey and Grohne got off route and unknowingly climbed a six-pitch variation to the Pillar, and humorously dubbed their variant Gringos Perdidos (Lost Gringos). Huey scored near-perfect weather during his two-month stay in Patagonia and managed to pull of a host of ascents including, the Whillans Route on Aguja Poincenot (with Dylan Johnson) and a first ascent of Last Gringos Standing on Aguja St. Exupery (with Grohne).
