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: Melissa Le Neve makes the first female ascent of Wall Street, 8c.

Good heel-hooking there :-)

I got my 6c+ project route (and first route at that grade) :-D

Last week I finally finished a really hard 5.9 route that I'd never gotten above the half-way point of in the past. There was a lot of swinging and swearing that went on, but I managed to get all the moves.

My partner got her first 5.10. I think our plan to climb 3 times a week is making us both stronger!

More frequent climbing is often good like that :-)

Yep! I'm just surprised that at my age I'm surviving it. (grin)
