Second ascent.

2nd asc. spent a few days on it a couple years ago and did it 3rd day this year. Hard route to grade and very specialized. the breakdown is a 2 move 8A+ for the first crux followed by a mini 12d into a 7C+ lurp dyno move. both cruxes involve around one low percentage move each. the outro section is around 8a. At first I thought 9a but after falling off the 2nd crux twice and having to fight in good conditions, I thought this could be harder. Psyched route season begins.

Well this one sure was a process for me!!! the first boulder was my true epic and it took a while to get it sorted and then the top dead point got wpic and i fell there 6 TIMES!!!! today it clicked and it all came together... just in time too! leaving tomorrow! A huge thanks to everyone in New England! Everyone up at the crag has been super supportive to me over the past few weeks and it feels nice to be back home on the east coast for a bit! :)leaving rumney with a smile on my face!
