| La Petite Mort (6B+) | Thanks to C Brew for showing me this one. Felt V8/9 ish but then I found the master beta. Great stone, and maybe my favorite at Noccalula so far |

| Dig Deep (6C+) | Packs a punch early, but then turns into V0. Might also be soft in the winter. Crux hold is a blocked pinch that you move to dynamically. Freakin rad. |

| Copenhayden Arete (7B+) | Excellent rock and hold set. Was very intimidated but made progress on each go. 85 degrees and humid with AubreGrace keeping me from concussion. Edge of sketch looks harder but didn’t try it. Not sure on grade, stylistically exactly what I would look for in a boulder so I guess we shall see. I miss my boy hayden |
