The big news is that Krissy finally sent her first 5.13a - Sprout, in Maple Canyon, UT. It took about 18 days and 40 tries for the send! (see Krissy's Flashed blog for more!)
After Krissy's project was finished up we headed back to Rifle, CO so I could finish off one last route. After a few more days effort and some beta tweaks I was finally able to send Simply Read 5.13d (hardest 13d on the planet I think!).
We have just spent the last couple days in Squamish, BC doing a little bouldering. The conditions have not been the greatest (either hot or rainy), but it has still been fun to check the area out. We managed to do a few of the classic problems and are now headed to Calgary, AB for some limestone sport climbing!
