| The Goldfish Bowl (6A) | 5 star feature, 2 star climb. Didn’t stem at all, stemming is definitely variation beta |

| Fathoms and Fathoms (7C+) | 2.5 hour long session in 70 degrees and direct sun. Gave up after about 2.25 hours but then Maddie had a close go with Tristan's top beta and I sent two tries later with that method. Easily one of the best boulders in New England and trumps or holds its own against anything that I saw in Rocklands. Super impressive flash from Ryan. Check for river depth at https://waterdata.usgs.gov/monitoring-location/01168500/#parameterCode=00065&period=P7D&showMedian=false below 3.4 feet is climbable (unless you're Bryce, in which case it's climbable anyways.) |

| The Wild Hunt Sit (8A) | Apparently the left hand was a significantly better hold in the past. Felt like a one move v9 into the stand. Fathoms and float both obscured by water so here we are. Always wanted to check this little boulder out for some reason… it’s quite fun! Unique features and a nice interplay of overhang and slab makes for a fun mix of tech and power. Unfortunately exhausted from hiking all the way from fathoms on a completely waterlogged trail and having to reclean the top so didn’t get to try anything else. |

| Charlatan (8B) | Psyched to swoop this thing. Mulligan from Man after the mulligan from the trifecta, with The Fly being too cold and Chelsea too sharp. Been hearing about this one for years, Liam and Kai say "big hype most impressive project in New England," not sure about that since I've seen the trav potential on the Speed boulder. |
