Warm down lap but only just....

3 laps today and keen for a return match. Love the middle of this route, steep long move jugs. Spent a bit of time working the top boulder, the exit isn't that bad but the set up is pretty nails. 8 move V7??

Not the best EOD warm down. Did the crimp move but had stick clip up to it as my arms were shot. 25?

Best line in the cave. Did all the moves first shot and was hopeful for maybe a send but ran out of power. The first steep crux isn’t that bad, reachy V5 maybe then a good jug but terrible feet. The second slope crux has mega moves but it’s going to be pretty hard with a pump. 27??

Primo connies for the slopes on this one. Prefect gramps training

One of my faves for the day. Jugs for days with knee bars and swinging heels.

Great tension boulder problem on cracker rock. We didn’t see higher anchors.

Logical extension, no moves any harder then the 23 just a bit more pump.

On the way up for the extension. Felt a bit stiff for a 3 but great climbing.

Has a couple moves on it.

Good little warm up,

EOD draw retrieve, fell at the mono just cooked! Great steep training.

Nice to change gears and put this down. Really great sustained steeps, pity the rock at the end isn't as good as the wicked middle section. (2)

3 more laps this morning, pretty much all to the same spot as last week. Fine through the campus but full power down loading up with the left hand and high feet. Might see other projects for a little while.

Really rad steeps and better then I thought. Flashed to the second last bolt eod but the jug rash got the better of my poor hands. Great sustained climbing with only two bad holds (both crux’s)

Great fun steep jugging. Ended up campusing the roof but the move to the pocket is off balance and hard. 3 shots to the same spot in the roof, back next week for more fun.

Cool line that I have wanted to fondle for a while. The start is a bit pox but gets better the higher you climb. About 22 to the perma-draw then thanks to soild Mitch beta pushed through the 2 bolt crux and snuck the flash. Cool.

Really mega really, very old school style and grade. One of those routes where you feel insecure the whole way but still make upward progress. Very strange reaches in spots and lots of tricky feet. A great challenge. Second shot.

Pumping fun. The headwall and anchors are still running with water??

Bit more cruise this lap then last time, great mix of styles.
