Ander on the last few juggy moves of King for a Day. Was going to pull some Tim Kemple so photoshop-ed it looks fake shit on this one but I bumped the tripod just enough that merging two photos became impossible. Looks a little off cause I tried to save it with a lot of editing so that one had a better sense of the boulder.
Chris working his way up the first of the two dihedrals on King for a Day
Chris pulling the crux move of King for a Day. This requires both generative power to reach the good spot on the second dihedral and core tension to stop the ensuing swing.
Forget the name of this rig but regardless it was a stellar one. Ander on the Scoop boulder's V4 arete. Its a little tall but at this point all the business is done and its pure pleasure to the top.
Unfortunately I got a little wrapped up in this one and never managed to snap a picture of anyone trying it. This is by far the area's best test-piece that I saw. Unique moves on immaculate rock. Its called Triple Mullet Blow Job and goes at around V10. I fell on the crux move a number of times but even just working this problem proved to be very satisfactory and enjoyable. The climb moves out a series of three (the first is only visible in the upper left) upwards moving rails on a 50 degree overhang. The line is a bit of a traverse but for the style and grade it might be the best I have tried.
