Denote link-ups #25

Similar to #24, but some climbs are just link-ups of others. The link-up itself is its own climb, but it is built-up from other climbs.

Sometimes, the line may blur between a variation and a linkup.. like what if a route climbs through many other routes, but never really "joins" them. What does that make the climb?

This may be equivalent to a "multi-pitch" climb, where all pitches have been modeled as climbs themselves. Without further though, this cannot be said.

Something fun about this.. is Darth Grader could be used to make a grade suggestion..

The only real difference between link-ups and a multi-pitch is the semantics in which they are presented. For a link-up, of a boulder for example, you may say

Start for Problem A, after the initial sequence join Problem B.

For a multi pitch you may say...

Pitch 1: <description for pitch 1> Pitch 2: <description for pitch 2> Pitch 3: <description for pitch 3>

.. but in certain multi-pitch scenarios you may also just mention the pitch by name, if for example it belonged to another climb "originally."
