There are no words for the feeling when you haven't been able to get out and work your favorite problems or routes for as long as I have. School and life, it turns out, take a lot of attention and time-- more even than my new pitbull demands.
So, it was beautiful when I got out to Gates Pass on Wednesday and finally put to rest my blood feud with the Low Travers-- V5. It was a personal best for me as well and, thus, doubly gratifying. The video can be viewed as a kind of condensed version of my relationship to this route. For more background refer to my summer of unfulfilled ambition.
HELL YEAH! Looks like we have another crag dog on the team.
