Really weird emotions coming off of this one. Firstly, I could not think of a better name for this climb, Dalton nailed it. A round of thanks and acknowledgements is absolutely necessary, as the people who made this climb possible are also the people who have defined my climbing journey and allowed me to reach the mental state and conclusion that led to my completion of this climb.

Thank you to @jack_wall_123 and @evangelo.birk for driving me up to siege this rig before I could drive, despite the fact that you weren’t syched on any climbs in the cave. The fact that some of my favorite people to climb with are the same now as they were 5 years ago says a lot. Thanks to my dad @miahwatt for the unconditional support and sych every time I made a miniscule link, the constant support for my climbing has allowed me to pursue climbing for very intrinsic reasons that hold lots of personal value. Thanks to @vancesteezfield and @hadlerock for bringing all time vibes yesterday and being the climbing partners I’ve lacked for years. And lastly my old coach @phillip_symons for teaching me a mentality and approach to climbing that has lasted long since my retirement from competition and that has led to exponential progress these past few months, the lessons I learned as a 14 year old continue to pay dividends. And thanks to my amazing gf @makenna.morriss for the support and banana bread I ate immediately before sending. There are many more people who were there along the way, with belays or videos or just sych for the process, and hopefully you all know who you are, thanks, I’ll try to tag all my belayers and videors if possible in the videos. Also a massive thanks to @arizona_mountaineering_gear and @bigfilschalk for the support.

Everything else is my first time achieving something on the route, starting in June 2024 when I started videoing and working towards the present.

Vail NACS ☑️

I knew I was capable of making semis, and potentially even finals. However, the strategy I had decided to use wasn’t efficient enough. By the time I got to the last boulder I needed to top for semis (after a close few attempts on one of the hardest boulders), the lines became too long, and I couldn’t execute correctly when I got the chance. I’ll keep that in mind for next year. This comp exposed weaknesses I didn’t know I had, and now I think I should actually train bouldering 😛
