After the crux foot broke Access Denied V9 was ignored for years. In 2019, an alternative beta was discovered that avoids the broken foot. Last week, Adam Benjamin did an impressively smooth repeat using the OG beta and the broken foot!
I was expecting damp conditions, so I went out yesterday and swept off the top of the boulder. Today was so beautiful winter was officially declared dead. I certainly hope this is the last time I have to sweep off an icy slab in 2021.
With 10 degree weather and sunny conditons, Boulderfest came early this year! 9 carloads of people descended on Heffalump for these excellent climbs. If you haven't checked this beautiful area, I suggest your FOMO in gamestop style.
