| Lip traverse (6C+) |

| Daily Decrease Low (8A) | A real lesson in patient and gentle footwork on a rather powerful bloc. The two extra moves from the sit start into the stand seemed trivial at first but turned out to give the line a dash more personality - as opposed to a stubby line that jumps right into the crux. |

| Under the Sun (7C+) | Tough finish but climbs really well. Low start seems improbable but not impossible! |

| Daily Decrease (7C+) | Classic gymnastic climbing. Liked the fall-in move and subsequent left hand pogo to the pinch/crimp. Didn't cut feet tho. Better quality rock than expected. 1hr |

| I’m With Stupid (7C+) | Pulled onto the start by standing on a folded, thick large organic and an unfolded regular sized. Height dependent move. |

| Wax Wings (8B) | Rid of my wings, I floated in the space between the earth and the sun. I felt that my body was subject to manipulation from laws which felt familiar but were previously unobserved - they were inextricable from my nature. I rotated and saw the earth, the moon, stars, asteroids: my being. Never before had it all seemed so… apart. |

| Stone Eater (7C+) | From the low jug. Amazing rock and cool moves but an unfortunate style for how confined it is; trying not to dab is big time hard. If it were pure and exposed it’d be a destination climb |

| Stone Eater (7C) | Really enjoyed this one! Fun crimping to a great slab finish. Props to Nick for finding and developing it! |

| Stone Eater (7C) | At first glance it may not look it, but this thing climbs really well with a variety of movement on some awesome quality rock for southern CT. Bullet crimps, steep start, dancy slab finish. The stand starts down in the cave with left hand on incut crimp, right hand high on crimp with thumbcatch. Establish feet, bump left a series of times through crimps and sidepulls before big move to jug. Then work your way up the slab. A sit start will add 1 hard move and likely go at v10/11. |

| Daily Decrease (7C+) | The hardest I've had to work for a triple double. Thought this one would go quick but that jump move stumped me. Aaron and Mitch gave me all the micro beta and it still took me 2 hours. Awesome to still be learning new moves like this outside. Such a fun day! |

| Under the Sun (8A) | One of the cooler roof climbs in new england! To me, it feels v9/10 into v8/9... v11 seems appropriate. |

| Daily Decrease (7C+) | c+ is probably cap, but who knows. I came in left and then bumped up with my right rather than throwing left and cutting. Felt mad easy that way. Psyched on the full linkup. |
