First ascent.
Psyched! AKA Yves's project on the nine-tenths boulder. Finally sent this masterpiece! One of my favourite climbs to date! Been working this one on and off for the past few years. Starts with a left hand undercling and right hand low on the arrete. Very hard compression boulder problem on a beautiful arrete. References [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1wrTLcZFC8

Sick one! Didn't think I'd have a chance after raging on west side before and hot temps, but it was okay! I like it. Having a really strong crew supporting and helping me with beta helped a lot. Felt like 10, maybe 11? to me but hard one to grade
