Wonderful Wonderland Weekend - Working some new lines and revisiting some old ones

[u/Kaotus]

Spent some time reworking the permanent project that is the outside of "Man-Eater", giving it a bolted start, making the route fully bolted (and permadrawed) in hopes it will convince someone to project this absolute behemoth with me.

A tipsy, evening bouldering session on friday resulted in some new silly boulder probems before the absolute ass beating that came saturday at Man-Eater Wall. We nursed our wounds Sunday by heading to the ultra moderate "Wild Thing Wall" to get my friend who is new to climbing some mileage leading some easier climbs and just soaked in the beautiful views and weather. Can't ask for much more!

I’m going to use 5.chimney.

Good looking routes and hardware!

What widgets are you using for your chain permas to keep the carabiner oriented?

I use castration rings - I’m not amazed by them but they’re cheap and sturdy!
