Im back of to the US on Wednesday, very excite!! First stop LA then off up to the Valley for some big wall suffering.
Tangerine Trip looks let to be first on the list a nice 16 pitch route on the right side of El cap. Then Mescolito if all goes to plan.
Weather as been below average in the lakes for the last 2 months so not a lot has been happening.
Ive also had a couple of injuries as well which hasn't helped matters. First was my finger...not sure what was wrong but that landed me a 10 day lay off. Then i got jumped by 3 Chav's which resulted in a bust shoulder and another 10 day lay off.
Last week tho i managed to take advantage of a 3 or 4 day minimal rain spell, and get up to Reecastle and do Breach of the Peace E7 6b (F7b+) i had flashed this on toprope a month or so ago. However with the bad weather and injuries it was left unfinished until now.
Its a quality little route on the far right of Reecastle, well protected and reasonably hard, altho Rob found a better hold than we originally used thus making it more like F7a+/7b probably.
Either way it was good to get it done just before i depart for the states.
