dagibbs | Climbing again in Ottawa

I got back out to Coyote in Ottawa this afternoon. It is kind of nice to come back to a "benchmark" and to find that I seem to have continued to improve in my absence. I was (mostly) bouldering, but was able to do a route I hadn't done before (able) and to do more smoothly, cleanly, and with less wasted effort several routes I had been able to do before. I also climbed a couple routes that had been put up -- a 5.7 that I went up with ease, and a 5.9 where I got as far as the last move, and got stuck there. I didn't spend too much time on it, since it was a casual belay from someone I'd met there, and I'd already had to wait for another climber where two routes overlapped.

Now, off to shower and dinner.
