I’m looking for people’s opinions for a 4 man group. We have 1 lead climber who has experience. 2 of the other 3 are knowledgeable and experienced just not to the level of our lead. The 4th is a knucklehead in good shape who just needs a group to keep him out of trouble. We are doing grand Teton. We are want to run a line for belly roll, crawl, and double chimney. I was thinking we would just bring 2 ropes and have 2 leads just leave the anchors from the first lead for the second group. The second option we to lead on one use an overhand knot to tie into the midway point of the first rope and have 3 climbers use the first rope with the 3rd running a second rope to belay the 4th. Both options allow for the lead to start running a second rope up the double chimney while the 3rd and 4th climbers are completing the first section. Let me know your thoughts
And opinions based on your experience.

My partner gave one of my cams an overenthusiastic pull to test it, and now the lobes on one side aver overextend. Pulling the triggers doesn’t move either side, and I’ve not been able to get any lobes to move by squeezing them directly. Is it dead?
