Friday glee climbs hand-in-hand
The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.
It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big. Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.
N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.
To enhance this week's glee: Sharma, Puccio and others attempt the "Friend" boulder problem, which ... well, have a look.

I had one of those climb all the things evenings this week - a couple of on-sight ascents, plus finally getting cleanly up a route that has been eluding me for weeks, and getting to the top of one I've never got further than 1/2 way on before. The finally-clean route felt easy, too, which is always odd - you spend weeks struggling with a climb, and the time it finally goes you wonder why it was so hard to start with!

It's always fascinating, that.

This week I did 2 new 5.9s, one on a vertical wall and the other on the slab. Lior and I are still working the 5.9 overhang. It continues to elude us. DAMN!
