| So here we are in day 3 of the latest hot spell. 90+ degrees for 2 daze and mid-80's and very high humidity today. At least it's not the week-plus of upper 90's we had last summer. Well, at least not so far anyway. Tho it is supposed to cool down tonight. Frankly I'm not sure if I'd rather it be really hot or wet.

| The Puking Gecko, Grand Wall, *** S9 5.12d/e 712m - An intimidating and salacious climb. The final pitch is so exposed, tricky, and continuously strenuous that it is impossible to even contact the rock at any point. Better than making passionate love on top of a Japanese Bullet Train. Superbly magnificent and grimly brilliant. |
