Morphine 8B Boulder | worked 7th Dec 2023

Came on this trip to work on cool anti style boulders and uhhhhh well I did this one instead. Harder than most V12s I've done, easier than the ones I haven't? Not too hard if you can do it before bleeding. Could see V12 but I know this is my best style. [1]

Fingerslut 8B Lead | worked 30th Dec 2023

This boulder climbs the start of a 7C+ into a tiny crimp and committing jump to a jug. The jump has a huge swing over a rock. I'm not a very brave climber in general, so even though I found beta to make the swing much smaller than others, I struggled with committing to it from the bottom. I prefer to climb in static positions. I did the move in isolation a ton of times to feel safer and practiced a little on the kilter board with huge swings. On the go, my friends had to yell a ton of encouragement to get me to commit to it. [1]
