Good evening of climbing...

[dagibbs]

Planet Granite Sunnyvale continues to be a good gym, even if the grades are soft. I got there around 6:45, and did a bit of bouldering, probably about 6 problems, a mix of V1 and V2 problems. Then the guy I was meeting arrived, and we did some lead climbing from about 7pm to 9pm. I did some good routes, and took a few lead falls. Not takes, but out-and-out falls, which is good. Then he was too tired, and headed out, and I joined a few people from the class I was training and did another 1h45 of top-roping with them. I finished with a long 5.11b, where I fell at the final crux, right near the end. After a few tries, I did manage to finish. I think it was a soft 5.11b, even for Planet Granite, though -- probably no harder than 5.10b/c at Coyote -- though much longer.
