Quick Draw McGraw - 5.11a

-

finally led the second pitch of this 2 pitch climb. thin at the top of the second and had to down climb to a small stance to sort out which direction and which holds to use to get through the last bolt to the anchors.

Likely a little soft for an 11a, but still made me think and got my toe tips numb from the day in the sport shoes.

It was really festive at the Central Scrutinizer, as the pools and arroyo were filled with locals celebrating Easter weekend. Great fun with all the action and the vendors. P1 only

Climbed cleanly for 11 out of the 12 bolts. When I was about a foot away from bolt 12, my hand slipped, and I fell about 25 feet. I ended up a few feet below bolt 10. I jumped back when I fell, but since my right leg was in a high step on a ledge, the initial fall cranked all my weight on my ankle and it was swollen as big as a baseball by the time I stopped...but hey I finished the route - and thankfully although its black and blue and still swollen, it doesn't really hurt - I went on to send several routes the next day, and Estrellita two days later!
