| Big Brick (8A) | Such a perfect little boulder. Simple, pure, powerful. Been on the to-do list for awhile, feels good to knock it out on a perfect solo day down in the gorge. Using the tiny intermediate Finn found for the right hand made the crux move significantly more doable for me. |

| Double Barrel (7C+) | Full package North Carolina climbing! This is one of the best V10's I've done. Obvious start, pinches, underclings, long enough to get pumped, all on a beautiful boulder on one of the prettiest rivers in the southeast. Very sequential and beta-intensive, took me awhile to find my way through it. Not ideal to do solo with 1 pad and a starter, but when the boulder is this good, you just have to force it sometimes! |
