Ascents in New Diversions Cliff

This would be a very serious lead.

One take at the sideways lieback move. Should have pushed through!! The start felt much more casual than a year ago, doing the 5.9 to the left.

Just one take. Fingers felt much stronger. This one should go soon.

Climbed this route after 'climbing' generator crack, the token 'im gonna go submit myself for thrashing by a wide crack on top rope' in the valley. New diversions however was an absorbing lead at the grade and an outrageous traverse across the face to a watermelon sized chicken head, no pro, i guess im slinging it. Then mantle said watermelon without kicking your only pro off and tip toe across to a piton. Gen, my climbing partner for the day boldly jumped on the pointy end afterwards and whipped off the chicken head pro! Glad to not have the same thing happen.

a 'must do' at the valley
