Howdy Everyone,
I've started a Patreon to help support the content creation of my site, as well as all the rest of my social media. I appreciate your support!
It's the first Monday of the month! Here's what's been happening on the blog:
Monday Bouldering @ Movement, 1hr Took it easy and just did an hour bouldering – basically a warmup, then worked briefly on a hard problem. Ended the day with a new V6 (seemed soft) and on my way to a V7, with my eye on a V8 (one can dream). Green Mountain #96 Little by […]

Monday Bouldering @ Movement, 2hr Another weird session. Concentration wasn’t a huge problem, but I felt very weak, even though I took an extra day off from what I usually take. My intention was to work on the 45 degree wall again, but I never got on it, having maxed out on V5s on less […]
