A nice day trip to a bridge that is now used for bouldering. Lidiya, Wil, Hencherson and I left around 1ish and returned about 6. 4-5 hours bouldering was a pretty good workout. We started on an 'easy' route discovering the height and sketchyness of the top-outs pretty fast. I am still unsure what grading was used (font, French sport or British tech) but we moved from the first 4c to a 6b- tetrion traverse. This route was the project we all wanted to send but stayed out of our reach all the time. We tried a fair few other routes including a 5c face that got pretty fine at the top and a laybacking 5a that was easier than seemed. The run down of the routes I did is: 4c onsight, 4b onsight, 4c onsight, 5c second try with sit start, 5a onsight with sit start, 5a second try with sit start, 4b repeat, 5a onsight, 4c repeat(as an escape from the 5c next to it). I thought it was a pretty good training session and am quite happy to return and eventually send tetrion. We returned and watched Life of Brian so there was a nice endpoint to the day. I honestly can't think of what else to say other than see you guys at the next post :)
