Hit the gym yesterday and trashed myself. Then an occasional partner called last night and proposed skipping work and climbing. We did that, and I managed my best onsight in several years, so that was very cool.

The tower is definately climbable in winter, but it kind of depends on the winter. DT is kind of out of the snow cycle around here and is low enough that the temps will almost always be pleasent if it is a sunny day on the South face. We have ice climbing just a few minutes outside of town though so I do a lot of that in the winter. We did climb there on Sunday and that is when the picture was taken.

Took a few burns on Scatterbrain for the first time...more progress on every burn, but no send. Slopy wide pinches, slightly funky/tricky beta. Spotter didn't spot and I've got a giant bruise on my azz after one nice tumble.
Then headed to Moonbeam crack to boulder out the bottom half, trying to get it wired. Few burns until diminishing returns. Damn that thing is hard and continuous, and kinda reachy.
Then soloed middle and right peyote cracks, went to search for Moving to Montanta aka Kevitation after failing to find it on 3 previous occasions. FOUND IT! And it's not that good, at least not for a wide problem. The wide is like 2 fist jams, then hard really steep face/sloper climbing with bad fall potential (you could roll of the platform and got another 10' to the floor).
Then went to sports challenge with a pad and harness..hoping someone had a rope on the Beaver, with Kirkatron as a backup plan. No beaver party, so took burns on Kirkatron...forgot how sequential it is (for me, anyway, have to get everything right to send).

That darn scaffolding again finishing my roof....Nearly tipped the Scaffolding doing a mantle on the edge of a piece.....Forgot we didn't have it clamped down or many pounds of materials stabilizing it.
Kinda like climbing 10b face a little up and a little down....
