I always have trouble clipping that third bolt on C Sharp, that route is HARD. I wish the bolt fairy would come along and retro that thing.
I see they are still lopping off mountains in Eastern Kentucky. Electricity isn't cheap.

There is a bomber placement for an orange camalot between the second and third bolts.

Yeah, I like the orange camalot. It seems to fit everywhere.. well, if the crack won't take the pink camalot or the burgundy one!

Actually it's maroon, not burgundy. Have trouble assembling an outfit, JB?

What is the botch part of Henry?
I still loved Seek the Truth. You are right about that ground fall, Dave Wolff busted his ass from up there. Lucky he didn't land on his melon.
