I found in these last couple climbs the most efficient system was for us to both single up the access line and then pick out areas and reset the TIP as needed rather than work SRS and have to work the range of retrievable and non redirects. Also the limb walks were pretty outside my proficiency so I really needed that extra ability to best manage the slack in the system. A couple ponytail redirects and some terminal end redirects. My climbing partner is a world champion several times over who generally climbs MRS so its a terrific opportunity to learn some great tricks from him on that system. I'll be back up with him next friday. It's great but its a 2.5 hour drive each way for me. Luckily next Saturday I present at the national arboretum so I'll just leave the area I'm working and make a fairly short drive to the crapitol and get a room for the night. It's kinda fun restarting. The main thing I really want to hurry up and get here is the confidence. My brain is my biggest barrier at this point.

I know who you are climbing with Steve and I'm jealous. Tell him I said "hi" when you see him next week.
 
I was watching some of James' old comp videos this morning on YT, what a beauty. So smooth and calm, no rushing. Mentorship from someone like that is invaluable. Happy for you Steve.

Been a little bit or a journey to get my foot in the door but its close to home and these trees need some loving so I'm looking forward to getting in them. I sought this out for 1 tree but when I got permission to go check them out I found about 8 and I can't decide what I'm most excited to climb first.

Maaaaaaaan, those have some nice architecture!
 
Finally got to cable that Redwood yesterday. As suspected it was the tallest one for at least a mile around, and nearly at the geographical center of town, so the view was pretty sweet. I hadn't thought about the city being so full of huge trees that you almost can't see any buildings from the air!

I'm a sucker for a nice lighthouse. I didn't realize how much they get me in the feels until I saw this. I grew up on the Atlantic coast of Florida, and there were so many.

Me too I love em
This is Barnegat lighthouse
One of my favorite places on earth
If I could take a vacation to find awesome trees and hit some lighthouses that’d be all I need for an awesome road trip
