Five for fighting
Went with a small crew to a very crowded BKB: G, Ryan, Jess, new import Axelle, and me. Fought our way through the crowds to warmup V0-V3, then worked a bunch of 4s and 5s (2xV4, 2xV5, 2xV4). V4s felt pretty good, and the V5s are getting to the realm of reasonable projects - the ratings are still pretty much all over the place, though. Ryan is coming along well and showing no ill effects of a layoff from climbing, and Axelle was climbing well (sport climbing prowess generalizes well).
Good evening out, need to make it back more regularly. Need to finally go get some new shoes, as I'm pretty sure I had my big toe directly on plastic the last few routes.

Once I went to the Gunks on a sunny day with shoes like yours. I ended up with a huge blood blister on my toe!
I can probably go Wednesday or Thursday night next week. Maybe we should go to TRC for a change.
That last problem you really figured out well. I was really far from figuring it out until you tried it.
That picture is hilarious by the way.
Felt good that session, maybe because the crowds made us rest longer between climbs.
Found that pic on a MP.com thread, can't figure out for the life of me how they got in that position...
