In the month of February, I made more trips to tumbling bald that the past 3 years. It started with the CCC competion.
At the comp, drove up with Kristi and Joe. After some early morning pad shuffling volunteering, we kicked of the rope climbing portion of the comp. We climbed up around screamweaver area, with bold fingers and screamweaver direct. (Met old friend Nathalie and strep south). Then we rushed over to cave area and cereal to make sure we got 5+ climbs in. (5.5 – 5.12 range). In the end miller’s tactics beat us out, but we got individual tied 3rd, and won the team total.
Next weekend, was a nice Sunday day out with Alexis. We met Drew and Tracy with hank at the parking lot. General bouldering beat was the name of the game that day. The biggest news was the bobcat surprise, which would keep me busy.
Finally weekend, I linked up with Johnny who won the CCC comp. after getting by the firetruck controlled burn, we left the tundra parking lot and was greeted with perfect temps at the hangin chain wall. Battles on big corner, lead to a top rope and then pink point of hanging chain itself. Thanks to Johnny for plugging the gear. End of day beat down on sprylooked was good too. Ended the day with beer at chimney rock with Johnny , Shannon, and Conor.
