| the bolting blowfish (7b) | I projected this thing 12+ years ago but then my bf and I broke up so there was no one to set it up for me so I had to give up. But then I discovered stick-clipping-my-way-up-things and I got a bunch of people psyched to come try it this year (but they all only came once each, lol). It was low 70s and sunny today with no leaves, but the humidity was down and I love warmth. |

| Puppy Love (6c+) | Ooh, so fun. Belayed Kevin Umbel on it and was scared. But on TR and with the hands and feet all chalked up, it felt easier for sure. Thanks for putting it up Kevin! |

| Ride 'em Cowboy (7a+) | This is a really good route - I couldn’t even get to the top though going more straight on the arete - the moves getting there were super fun. If felt harder than any of the 12s at pettifogger wall |
