Milked the rest for what I though was going to be a wet finish. Ended up having rocks for forearms the rest of the day.

The start is a lot of fun with some really cool moves to the Bison "head". Crux is at the top with two high left heels to finish on some beautiful jugs at the end!

Big fun moves between good holds. Just didn't have enough juice to work out where everything was before I pumped out.

Really enjoyable, the move onto the 'bison's head' is really cool and unique, and figuring out how to clip the second bolt is interesting — I did it before moving my legs over the bison's head. But it's the last move to the good holds near the anchor that makes the onsight difficult. Took me 4 attempts, and a good whipper before I got it!

Finally got this one after a few heartbreaking falls on the final move. Trick is certainly knowing where the good holds are when making the final move to the anchor

The move at the top is a little scary but not too hard once you find the right hold.

Loved the thrutch move at the start but couldn't quite make it from the last bolt to anchors.

After hangdogging the climb, made it to height of last clip, unable to complete.

This one got me between the last clip and the double rings... There was plenty of chalk on the wall from other peoples attemps - all in the wrong spots... But don't think I would've made it the first go anyway - was pretty pumped by then. Came back the next day and finished it off properly.

	23	★★ Thrutchin' The Bison	Sport 20m, 5	★★ Very Good	Kelly Boladeras
this one is awesome!! but the run out between the last bolt & the anchor is a bit disconcerting...fell off & sprained my ankle, so did scotty k (aka scotty booboo!!). So yeah just ONE MORE BOLT WOULD BE NICE. Its beyond me y they just cant bolt it safely...
	23	★★ Thrutchin' The Bison	Sport 20m, 5		Scott K
Got to the second last bolt cleanly. Made it to the final jug but fell before clipping the anchors. Big whipper resulting in a sprained ankle and an end to my climbing trip.
