● First Aid Arete
Oct 26, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. Incredible position, great movement, bullet stone... The run between 3 and 4 looks spooky from below, but climbs safe as-is, and a textbook yellow Metolius placement makes it extra casual. They don't get much better than this... With Abigail on the last day of FFF...

Oct 18, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. Bridge Day meant we somehow had Beauty to ourselves... Came back with some fitness after coming up short last year- felt great... Truly an amazing line... With MC at FF's bday blowout...
