My bouldering gym, which had recently reset things so that all of the easy V0 routes were gone, finally put some more V0 routes back in, including one which (aside from a fiddly start) is a nice easy laddery climb. Given that a few of my friends are even newer at climbing than I am, this is excellent news; it means at least one of them can finally get to climb a full route again, where she couldn't before.

I also nearly bought a harness, and didn't, mostly because I was annoyed by all of the harnesses for women being available only in pale purple. Sigh. But still! I'm definitely at the point where I can go "Yes, I should buy a harness because I'm going to use it often enough to make it worth buying instead of renting," so I call that some good Friday glee anyway.
