Beautiful. Near continuous lip from sitting to 12+ feet. 3 days, 3 full sessions. Possibly the longest I've taken on any major project to settle on beta, everything the 1st day felt about the same. -Nearly- had it sorted on day 2 but couldn't link the 1st two moves into the rest. Come April 1st, low 30s after a day of heavy rain and I managed to swing her after an early morning wake up call. Water levels slowly creeping up the side of the boulder, landing was under by the afternoon. Missed the video on the 1st send, felt heartbroken and managed to eek it out a 2nd time a couple goes later. Most thin my skin has been in a long time! Feels hard 10 or maybe 11, difficult to grade because obviously friction dependent (although maybe less so than slopers would suggest). Barely sent the 1st time around, still struggled on the last big move off the lip on the 2nd send too. Looking forward to repeat attempts on this one!
