Hagakure

Today was supposed to be my first lazy, non-climbing Saturday in two months. After drinking coffee until three o'clock, I headed out to Hagakure with Joel and Cortney and snapped a couple of pics. Joel came close to repeating the stand start again, but the low seems to add a bit more than expected. I was excited to have a go on Chutzpah, but when we made it there, the river was lapping at the start of the problem.

After that we headed to the Camp Serene boulder to play on the fantastic highballs there. Cortney came close on the center line, while Joel and I climbed the classic problems a couple of times. Here's Joel showing why he's the master of jump starts...
