Pru, consider yourself invited (like you need me to tell you that).
Beauty is pretty rad, we climbed at Endless the day before and this was more of the kind of climbing I was used to. Whole trip was a learning experience for me, and I've climbed at Lumpy, Flatirons, Eldo, and Boulder canyon in the last month.
[beta]Supercrack was long, but not too bad. I'm no stranger to trad and this wasn't too bad for me, 9+ but if you're comfortable at that grade it's cool. Sustained mostly, decent stances every 10 feet or so and the top is maybe 15 feet of pure mother loving hand/foot jam steepness. If you can hang off jams and torque your feet it's not bad, my favorite part of the climb for sure.[/beta]
Weird, but I took 2 (almost 3) lead falls Sat on stuff well within my range so I had major demons in my head. The New was a very strange place and the headgames were the hardest part Sunday. Thankfully Supercrack fixed that for me!
and since this is a pic thread, this is a reminder of why we're waiting for the winter!!!!!!!!!!
