We got back to Boulder this summer and I got back to trad climbing again. The first day was with my brother on Dome rock up the East Slab 5.6. I led ok but then at the top dropped a locking carabineer. I haven’t dropped anything off a climb for years! Felt like such a Gumby.
A week later, Anja and I headed off to climb Cob Rock up the North Face Center.
Cob Rock the distinct crack up the middle was our line.
The day started with crossing Boulder Creek on a fixed rope.
I took the first led but half way up called down “Do you have a nut tool?” “No?” “Me neither”. Opps glad I had 12 cams on the rack.
It was a straightforward pitch and I set the belay in a corner.
Anja led up from there to the top.
With a little pause at the 2nd pitch crux. It was a nice day in the canyon and an nice climb.
