8B+ (2 laps!) and more for Nakajima in Colorado

Toru Nakajima has continued to have fantastic climbing days in Colorado, racking up over 100 points in one day at Lincoln Lake (not counting 2 of his 3 laps on Bebe Wolverine 8A+) and yesterday climbing Big Worm (8B+) twice! He has also recently made many one day ascents including Clan of the Cave Bears 8B, The Mote in God's Eye 8B, No More Greener Grasses 8A+, Ground Control 8A, Buck Knife 8A, Bierstadt 7C+, Public Execution 7C, Purple is Not a Color 7C+, Wild Basin 8A, and Unshackled sit, flashed Unshackled 7C+, and made perhaps the first ascent of Cloak of The Tiger Direct 8A? He's got just 4 more days left in Colorado. Photo: Toru on a lap of Bebe Wolverine 8A+ at Lincoln Lake.
