Day Five

Coquitlam.

It was an Edge invasion; protesting the lack of new climbs in well over a month, a crew of Edge climbers decided to check out the new climbs out in Coquitlam en masse.

Like a kid in a candy store, I tried to sample whatever I could. They had some new round volume forms, one of which was a hold on 10 (10!) routes, including the finish of one V7. While fun, it made for a lot of scraped forearms for everyone there, all of us trying to hug the same holds in the same way.

It was a good day; I felt competitive with those around me, and while clearly not sending everything left-right-center, I made a good showing.
