Is there anyone left on this board that is content to post about some fun route they did last weekend? I really enjoy those the most. This board is becoming chossier than Hooky Pals.

I really liked the 5.4 (the Grinch, I think!) that I did at Dip Wall last weekend.

I also climbed at Joe Ponder in Muir on Saturday and got on some fun but short cracks and sport.

What about you? climb anything fun recently?

I finally got to do Bedtime For Bonzo...as a new climber still - this was one thing everyone kept saying to do - it was fun and very interesting! After climbing in the Red for the last 5 months straight....I am finally getting on the fun moderate stuff instead of stuff way out of my range. I want to get back to Fortress soon, there were lines for everything last weekend so we only got B for B in...

I also pulled about a v5 move getting out of my car at work today because I parked way to close to the wall in the parking deck...does that count!! ;) I am going to call this project: "Late For Work" (which is why i got stuck with the sucky parking spot).

Does it have to be about routes at the Red? I haven't been to the Red in a while...

I got my ass kicked on Apolo Reed at Summerville two weeks ago. Anyone got any good beta on that weird knee bar move at the start?

Oh and I had an incredible trip to Bishop back in March! I ticked a bunch of V4s and two V6's. Stregnth in Numbers at the Sads was my favorite...super steep with cool holds and a bit scary!

Oh,I did do one route at the Red this Spring!...American Dream at the Darkside...that route was really fun, I love the pocket move at the start!

Finally met "The Coach" out at Skybridge and got to share some excitement discussing Red River history. Climbed some classics there again. Skybridge just rocks.

My girlfriend Jodi on-sighted Candy Corner at Seneca for her 4th trad lead ever. I have been to Seneca many times, but I had never done Candy Corner. What a beautiful route! Very therapeutic and fun climbing. And the on-sight sex was great, too...

oh and I have been super psyched to climb in my friend Jason's garage on tuesday nights! He's got a SWEET wall with awesome problems! I'll either be super strong or super injuried by fall! :mrgreen:

oh and speaking of on-sight sex...

It has been super cool to see Meadows recover so quickly from a broken ankle, two weeks ago she was crankin at Summerville and then the next day we went on a fun 5 mile run on some trails..pretty amazing. I was whining about my leg for like 6 months after I broke it.
