There is a place in the Gray Bruce Peninsula, called Old Baldy. Its essentially a 100 meter cliff , 330 feet high. Novice rock climbers test themselves.

Funny little 7a
I was falling of the move towards the second big hold, so decided to film to see if I could figure out what was wrong with my leg placement; first time filming it and I sent the entire boulder!

Topping out on “Maiden Voyage” and “King me” in the Black Canyon. Cheesing.

After 3ish years of not climbing, decided to pull on rocks again. Fun day at Wall Street! Led some really easy routes, struggled on some slab routes and tried some off-width.

My favourite boulder from the comp last week
I probably could've done it in one go, but on my first attempt I didn't get high enough on the big hold; I aimed at where the no-tex stopped, but it still goes up a bit after that, ah well I got it on my second go then and first go today. (And it was a friendly comp anyway)

Checked out a gym in Vernon while visiting for a friends wedding! Cute little spot, some tricky climbs for a small gym

So I filmed this one in slow-motion because 1.) I quite struggled with the second to last move, the big one to the crimp; My foot would slip off and I wanted to see if that happened before or after my hand reached the right height for the hold so slow-mo would give me a bit more detail, and 2.) I thought the jump would look cool. The slow-mo does look cool, but it also make the light flicker even in the part I want to see in real time so that kinda sucks, and it feels, but I'm not sure, like the framerate is less consistent when it's higher. idk, I probably won't film a lot in slow-mo in the future

Getting the left foot up at the start was quite tricky, and after that it was just scary, but not too hard. I couldn't see the foothold I went to with my right foot, and it felt like I was not even a little stable on there.
