Bone Machine into Hats for Weasels via Rubble Rouser 8B+ Boulder | worked After 1st May 2014
First ascent.
Serenade 8B+ Boulder | worked 8th Mar 2015
Golden Shadow 8B+ Boulder | worked 30th Aug 2015

Total mental war of attrition! Marc le Menestrel saw me on it and described my climbing as 'dancing on rock'. A little bit pleased.
Jour de Chasse 8B+ Boulder | worked 30th Oct 2016
Bordello SDS 8B+ Boulder | worked 23rd Apr 2017 8B+

Very nearly broke me (literally), that's the hardest I've pushed my fingers on any problem. Used mikes left hand sidepull crimp sequence on the stand but a slightly easier sequence on the sit hence the personal downgrade. Still the hardest thing I've done. [1]

Megos' contribution. As with all the hard stuff, feels ok when it goes. Harder than perky pinky but possibly a little bit easier then milk it?
