Heralding in a new season of post-work sessions, Justin, Elijah, Marcela, Kristy, and I hit up Lizard's Mouth in the waning hours of sunset. Temps were frigid—for here. That meant skin and rock—inexplicably—stuck together, resulting in a slew of rad sends. Elijah repeated Gangsta Hippy, and I added a low start to the problem, making it even radder. At least for me. The rest of the day was spent on "Top of the World, Ma" boulder, which has become my favorite Lizard's Mouth locale for hard, sloper problems. I accomplished Bernd's Red Line (Vhard), the sit-start to Top of the World, Ma (Vawkward), and began work on a dire direct line between the two. Think: same jug/crimp start, go straight up. Those pics of me in a heinous heel-hook position? Yeah, that's the one...
Even Bob Banks made an appearance, camera in tow. Thank him for the images.

I think it is rad that people are getting on that stuff.
Do the crew try the "Ron Kauk Project"?
Bernd and I put some work into it, but never got it. (He might have done it already.)
Frick, that thing is thin...
Bob and I talked about and pointed at the Ron Kauk project for a while. Of course, we didn't do any climbing. That thing is stupid hard. Maybe just stupid. Hard to tell. The "holds" are fairly gritty as well...
