Finally got on the route (on t/rope) after several years since my first 2 tries, and got up clean. Way happy. Pauline belayed me.

Pretty easy on toprope. Try not to have your belayer lower you into the tree on the way down.

Seconded this line cleanly in August, sent first go on lead. Dropping the whole 'biner of nuts in the sizes I needed, and forgetting to take any Green C4s made it into a much more hairy lead than it should have been because I had to pull the crux with bad gear under my feet. My fault and stupidity all around. I can't think of any reason why I dropped the nuts-- at an easy comfortable stance near the bottom, other than my fingers being numb from the cold at the beginning of the day. I thought I clipped it back to the harness, but obviously I missed.

Did this as a warm up today
Felt much better than the last time we warmed up on this climb. Only a couple of awkard moves (mostly likely my poor technique!)
