Today at the Climbing Wall

"I think I want to try something that's a bit beyond my ability, like a 5+ (5.10a apparently, for those reading in American)", says I.

So with zoeimogen on belay, I head for a 5+ route with an intimidating looking overhang section on the big wall, decided that nothing ventured is nothing gained, and that I'm just going to go for it.

Here's how I did:

I was a bit pooped after that, but I put my hand on the carabiner at the top where the rope goes through, so that counts as winning, and I only nearly fell off once (that's when I make the curious "wahhh!" noise near the end).

V. pleased with that one. *nod*
