Wow, what a fun weekend of just putzing around my favorite canyon! No real objective, just showing up and having fun climbing! I repeated some fun .12s and worked my new project a bit too! I feel so so lucky to have @andrewgdowning who is always down to go touch rocks! Thanks @jonvickersphoto and @tenniscat78 for taking some surprise photos and sending them my way!:)

Same holds, different beta! So fun working out project beta with some fellow shorties! I've even gotten to feel tall this week! Thanks @annahiatt_ and @rose.beta for working this thing with me, even with if we dont use the same beta 😆 Now to figure out the cruxy crux at the roof! Maybe we will actually share beta there!

Rainy day today making me appreciate the good conditions yesterday! We did our last untouched (by us) 12a at the crag and got started on a new proj! @annahiatt_ ,@marshmallow_bean_ball , Koda and Maple made for the best crew! @tenayaclimbing@libmtn #tenayaclimbing #libertymtn #skinabusespecialist #tenaya #singingrock_official
I wish I could blame it on the wrist and finger injuries. But to be honest, I am a very scared boulderer! While this climb did have a crimpy right hand undercling, I was able to approach it pretty controlled and not irritate the wrist or finger! It was also very warm and sweaty out. But I know that I just get more nervous than I should. I planned on bouldering lots this season until I injured myself! Maybe next year I can work on my top out game more 😅
Huge thank you to @andrewgdowning for getting out with me on some easy chossy stuff! I have had an injured wrist and finger and havent climbed in forever!! But rock under my hands and sun on my back has me sooooo ready for spring sport climbing season!

I guess there is still a week left in the year, maybe I'll sneak another send or two in! But man, what a fun climbing season!! Having this goal pushed me to get out so many more days than I would have and it was the best!!! This season reminded me that like 99% of the time, climbing makes everything better!
I cut back my climbing days quite a bit after hitting my 100 goal, got sick, busy with work, just life stuff! But I now know I could do much more if I wanted to and kept my momentum up the whole year.
Great job @andrewgdowning and @lowballincolin Who also did my 100 goal with me and blew me outta the water! So fun climbing so much with you!
Awesome sends and awesome belays all season from @annahiatt_@carolynmloves2climb and @weldonmckenzie
Now time to train for next year!

Made it to the Red! And finally got back on a climb I tried a couple of years ago! While it did feel much better than last time, I still had to try hard and it still took 2 attempts 😅 glad to put it down! Grateful for my @tenayaclimbing Tarifas for those tiny techy feet!

Such a classic, a must do each season! I love having those classic benchmarks to come back to and gauge where I am at (and just enjoy that movement again) now off to the RRG! Thanks for the belay @carolynmloves2climb@libmtn@singingrock_official@tenayaclimbing@rhinoskinsolutions #libertymtn #skinabusespecialist #singingrock_official #tenayaclimbing #tenaya #singingrock
A repeat from 5 years ago, but I did have to re-figure out my beta and work it a bit again 😆 it felt good to put this one down as I was sick a few weeks ago and took a full week off of climbing (longest break of the year I think) . Ever since, I've felt so weak and awkward on the wall! So this reminded me that I DO know how to rock climb! 😅 funny how just a week off (and still recovering from being sick I guess too) can feel like such a set back! Felt good to be able to pull hard and get PUMPED again! Thanks @carolynmloves2climb for the video :)

I hit my 100 5.12s for 2025!!! 🎉 when I first decided to do this, I did not know if it would even be possible for me! And now I am done with plenty of season left to continue on, project, and maybe even boulder?? 🤔
My favorite has been hearing what other people's variation on this goal has been! 100 outdoor climbs, 50 leads, 50 indoor leads, 50 Kilter problems! What has your goal been?? Or ideas for next year??
Thank you to @andrewgdowning , @carolynmloves2climb , @annahiatt_ , @weldonmckenzie , @zoe_strnad , @lowballincolin for all of the love, support, and many many belays through this whole thing!!
And thank you to @libmtn , @singingrock_official , @tenayaclimbing , and @rhinoskinsolutions for keeping my geared up with the best! 😊
