We did a day trip to Leavenworth with friends to see what the weather is like. Turns out that 1: the season has officially begun, 2: I’m glad I brought my big light again, and 3: I’m really close to sending a line i’ve dreamt about for years.

In the morning Abby and Natalie tried The Hole for a little while.

That thing is hard, but they were making pretty good progress an piecing it together. After a couple hours, we met up with Josh, Teal, and Melise to hike out to the equally terribly named Pimpsqueak. This thing has been a dream of mine for a long, long time because it’s such a beautiful line. I mean, just look at it:

Everyone made some very solid progress on it and I hope to finish it soon!
