The last couple of years I've been focusing all of my energy trying these in insanely hard projects that I've rarely had the pleasure to actually send a route. Today in Santa Linya was one of those illusive moments. I sent a project that I've been trying the last few years. I think I'm going to call it Stoking The Fire and I think it's pretty solid 9b. So many hard complex sequences with no rests! Climbing is so much about the process and all of the lessons we learn along the way but it sure is good to get to the top once in a while. It's nice to remember what that feels like and that I still have it in me! Psyched for more!!

Had a rainy day look at Santa Linya last autumn, it is ridiculous, if you at the base of the routes they are stupid steep and then if you lean back to look out at where they go it feels like your head is going to fall off.

I was wondering why there was a photo of someone on the route taken in the mid 70s.
