This past weekend I went to Hueco Tanks with Alex. My intent was to send Dean's Journey, but after I got up on the problem and turned face down to see the rock below, my arms stopped working. I am really bad at heights. Then I did Free Willy and Bloody Flapper for redemption. Then, since it was a little cooler I went over to try Black Mamba, a slopey 3 move problem. It was not quite warm enough for that. Since that didn't go either, I did the one move V3 next to it for fun and actually got it on video. Here is the video and some of the pictures Alex got.
After a while I got on Power of silence and I actually felt really good. Everything except my fingers. After crimping Free Willy and Bloody Flapper, then sanding what was left of my skin off on Black Mamba, I just couldn't hold on.
Regardless of the pain, I continued to try it. After a while though, my feet called and said they'd had enough too. I guess it will go next time.
Dude, some of the sickest pictures I've seen are the ones you took on that 3 last time I was out there. That thing's a good time.
