Fun two finger pocket hopping, and the top definitely stays interesting.

Falls
I took some pretty sick falls just getting over the roof before I got the redpoint. The upper section is decieving, for me it looked better than it was.

I blew the move, but got it second go. Taking a year and a half off of climbing sucks because the holds feel big, but the arms and fingers just don't cooperate.

I think this was my first 12a flash. Thanks to great running beta from my hubby! If you get the sequence right at the crux, it's all yours.
