Very cool rout. Definitely puts your head game to the test. Basically a 5.11 sport roof, but with a LOT of exposure and no nice person to place a bolt just over the roof within your comfort zone, just some right winged crazy guy with an afro from the 70's telling you its fun. But he sure aint lying. Can't wait to try some more of those lines.

haha! LOVE modern times!!! right up next to bambi meets godzilla at josh for the hardest 5.8 evAR! had a gf decide to take a whip on it cause she was scared of all the traversing, welp an hour later she successfully learned how to a) tie bachman's and b) prusik with them, all from me yelling blind from the top of the cliff, couldn't hear her worth a damn from the wind and the fact that i was on top and she was under a 40ft roof. goodtimes! (pun intended, wooo 8+!)

i just moved down to louisville from western mass september 1. the rain has put a damper on things, but i've only missed one of 7 weekends so far (we we're boozing hard at a friend's party). with the rain though 3 of those weekends were 1 day'ers :cry:

my buddy aka absolutsugarsmurf has started me off right:

my send list to date (warning massive spray):
cruising lane - on-site
headstone surfer - on-site
up swift creek without a paddle - on-site
right of passage - red-point after a TR weeks before
underling - on-site
doppler effect - on-site, plus a 2nd lap the next week, cause it's so damn good
king me - 2 go's - i know, i know, spurt climbage, sorry
synchronicity - have had 2 go's, first time - one hang, 2nd time - one fall, same spot, forgot hand beta, it'll go next time i'm on it
rock wars - amnesia on-site, did it 3 years ago

have also had TR laps on no return and andromeda strain, just need to go back and lead 'em
