| Bertha (7c) | 2nd go today, maybe 6th or 7th overall. Threw a new perma on the 3rd but the old rusty chain reds to be chopped. Added a perma to the second as well (thanks Todd), I hand-tightened the quicklink but didn’t have a wrench with me. This route is sick. I thought it was close to 13a, that crux is wicked (5-move V6/7). 😮💨 To whoever stole my three quickdraws off this route earlier in the season: consider GIVING rather than taking- that is all. |

| Flavored with Meat (7a+) | 2nd go today, tried once a month ago and once years ago. The second crux always felt impossible until I unlocked the right sequence. Such a standout route, 5 stars anywhere. Probably 12b IRL but it’s cool to have a few proud sandbag test-pieces to keep us all humble. |

| Godzilla (7c) | Excellent intro to 13a. Worked in June (two goes) and got it fourth go today. Buddy thinks clipping hold at third perma broke |

| Opossum Loaf (7a+) | Opposum Tongues sadly seems to have broken at the crux (could not find a sequence after working at it for damn near an hour), so had to bail onto this lichen fest alternate finish instead... the shared bottom is great at least |

| Perseid (7b) | Full line + topout, soft 2nd go ("12c," not sure if fair). Absolute lichen fest, kinda wish I tried something else, but the crux was some "unique" jamming grovel fun. Fell on the last move on my onsight go thanks to all the dirt lol |

| Carnivore (7c) | This was hard for me, solid 12d imo. Kept trying it at the end of the day after sessioning Bertha, made for more attempts than usual. Stoked to make it happen 4th go of the day after gleaning some crucial micro beta and skipping the second to last draw. Excellent rock, excellent climbing. Morpho, did two max span iron cross moves and can barely keep feet for the rightward traverse, til-toed out pretty hard. Left a perma for the reachy clip transitioning from slab to bulge. Enjoy 😘 |
