--- Gunks
Climbing with Kyle. We climbed Never Never Land, Middle Earth, and MF. The first pitch of MF is quite the scary
lead. It turns out that you are supposed to traverse right after the bulge. I took the more obvious line straight up.
This is a 5.10 variation which very nearly spit me off. The next week my friend Tammy pitched off at that exact spot and
shattered her ankle.
The first pitch of MF is probably my hardest ever trad onsight lead. And possibly my hardest ever trad lead period.
