Climbing with Liam last night pretty cool
Lead
5.8 Red on the new wall – Route was pretty shitty and didn’t flow
5.9 Green EPH – Really easy lead for a 5.9
5.9+ Red – This route is in the new section on the left right up the arete. Totally challenging! You start up the arete and then have to traverse out onto the face. The whole route is over hung so it’s pumpy. It was hard but I didn’t have too much trouble with it…
5.10b Yellow – This right starts in the cave and then traverses to the right facing wall (all over hung). I had to hang dog this baby but was able to get to the top. I just gassed out a few times and struggled to make clips. Took one whipper during the climb…There is a 10a to the left of this climb I wanna try next time.
Top Rope
5.8 Pink – Stemmy problem that was pretty easy but as Liam said got the blood flowing
5.9 Green (EPH) – We did this on TR first and then lead it. A really good climb. Not super hard but really fun!
5.10d White – I fell on this climb last time, but last night I sent it. My hands just felt like glue last night! They were sticking to everything! The route is solid and sustained but there is a rest about half way up take advantage of that and then you can do the high instep that is required to finish the climb.
5.9 Pink – I just wanted to end the night with something easy but this route killed me. It is called “off center” and that is exactly how you feel the whole climb. I was too tired but I struggled and fell and finally made it to the top…
I tried to do a couple boulder problems but it was just a joke. Too dammed tired to pull anymore…
