✅ Power Tools 5.12c. My new hardest route I’ve done in City of Rocks. 🥺

This climb means a lot to me. I used to look at this and think it looked impossibly difficult and too runout. But over the years, I’ve grown a lot as a climber, in physical strength, mental control, and technical ability. And this year it finally didn’t seem so intimidating.

5 sessions on the climb to get the send! Tried it a couple times in June and July, trained the rest of the summer, and finally got it done yesterday despite only getting 4 hours of sleep and feeling like my joints were falling apart (thank u Tylenol for saving me). As often happens on projects, on the send go the climbing felt really dialed and reasonable! I use pretty unique beta apparently on the opening V6 boulder. Curious if anyone else has done it this way.

So immensely grateful for this amazing place that gives me opportunities to keep pushing myself on such beautiful climbs. And for the ability to try hard even when my body struggles sometimes. I love climbing 🖤🤠
