I'm impressed, Squeezin!

Seriously, I'm impressed! I want to get my head together and lead something before I die of old age!

my goal is to start leading more consistently.

I started leading again about a month ago, and so far I've only gotten my nerve up to lead routes that are harder for me. I had much more fun leading an 11a than leading wadcutter at torrent. So I want to start getting my head together and stop downclimbing when i know i can do the moves. I've already gotten some good falls in this spring, so I just need to keep working on it.

And...I want to get a lot stronger at trad.

One of my goals was to master the slack line at Miguel's, but thank's to the storms this past week their is no slack line. I worked on that thing all winter, and was actually making some progress. Anybody think it will be put back up ? I hope so... just hate to project somthing and not get it done.

Pirate, darlin', I've got some crutches you can borrow if you insist on working the slack line and need them.

Well, I started leading again this past weekend.... started on Mr. Bungle.

Ya gotta start somewhere, right?

Some people I know were there and met you. Did you see one of them doing practice falls on Mr. Bungle in order to teach someone how to lead belay? There are two things wrong with this picture.

lead falls on Mr. Bungle ..sounds an extreme sport.

Uh, thank god I didn't see that.

BTW, she ended up with a sprained ankle.

Yeah, Mr. Bungle isn't overhanging enough to practice lead falls on.
