Second ascent by:
Felt mellow today
I was tired, it was the end of the day. I moved slowly and thoughtfull through the climb; it felt easy today. I told my partner about a great pink tricam placement near the flake. He was skeptical but I bounce tested the tricam and it was great.

Great Climb
First 5.9 trad lead! Maybe soft for 5.9.
Didn't want to place pro in the creaky flake, but could have slinged it. Would've prevented huge run-out on the following sketchy, reachy move. Moves under the roof actually harder than the jugfest roof itself.

last climb of the day
Picked my way up, nice and slowly. Enjoyed it very much. Finished up the chimney rather than go to anchors. Lots of fun.
