| Quick Tick Egyptian (8a) | Had tried the scrunchy opening sequence a couple of years ago and finally unlocked it this trip with some great beta from Matty! Awesome rig and maybe top 3 8a’s in the canyon?! |

| Magnetar (8b) | Awesome rig with everything from hand jams to pockets to overhead knee-bahs! Managed to recompose and give it the dinnah after punting off the final moves first go of the day. Psyched! |

| Tomb Raider (8b) | The only route that I didn't manage to send in my 2023 Rifle season, whew. Took some extra tries as I never took it very seriously, but still, this one felt tough to me. |

| Quick Tick Egyptian (8a) | I was surprised at how ‘quick’ this came together. |

| Cruz Life (8c+) | Start on Crew, Finish on slice of Life. Classic left to right Link up. Not a good one for a Saturday but worth doing on a cold, sunny day in December. Maybe the last send of the '23 Rifle Season?? |

| Shades (7c) | That tasty sip of Bailey's and hot chocolate pre-send on a schizophrenic winter weather day in Rifle... but then later Sklar got us in trouble with the cops for all his squatting in our driveway, so the send was overshadowed by the (nonexistent) drama. |

| Shades (7c) | Skipped the last bolt on my 2nd go and thought everything would be fine. Then a hold broke as I was going to the anchor, and I took a monster whip; rocks were flying all over the place. Threw it down next go. Cold Halloween at the crag today. |

| Never Enough (8b) | Tom spoon fed me perfect beta, the weather was perfect, I was well rested, and I was climbing with good people. This would be my hardest flash by two grades, but it didn't feel like such an extreme step up. Hard to know when its a flash though. |
