Ascent Notes for: Not on the First Date - 5.11c Average Rating : 3.45/5

rock climbing was today. I'd really like to try it again.

I think she got a bad first impression, but we got it on anyway. Partner said it was as good as an on sight, but...I plugged a C3 then bouldered up to clip the first bolt, but couldn't get a position to clip it; I downclimbed a few moves, but then sat on the rope and lowered the last couple feet. With better knowledge of the start, I climbed back up and sent.

Blew the onsight ... fingers were numb and I couldn't tell how well I had the crimps in my hands, and I guess I just figured I wouldn't get it and pitched off. Excuses, excuses! Stupid. Anyway, got some poonani on the second date.

Thought this was really cool! Hard crimps and a nice runout made it exciting at the finish.

Up there in the runout

messed this up at the top again.
