We\u2019ve started the trip off by checking out some new boulders because the climbs we really want to do are wet. (I swear I type this every year!)<\/p>\n\n\n

After a day or two to dry out, then it\u2019s on to the ticklist. The two main climbs Paul and I want to do have been on our ticklists for years at this point. First of all, they both tend to stay wet longer than most due to their location and the direction they are facing. Sunshine is a rare and fleeting commodity here in the valley this time of year. The last few years it\u2019s been not until the middle to end of the trip that we get to try them (after we\u2019re good and beat from climbing all the Plan B boulders!). This trip is turning out no different. Second, both climbs require the classic valley combo of strength AND technique. Unlocking the puzzle is the real challenge, not powering through the moves. I heard a new climbing word recently on a video that sums up the requirement for sending both of these climbs perfectly: Tech-power.<\/p>\n\n\n
