New routes at the climbing wall means new pain. Ow.
They aren't officially graded yet, so my reckoning is by hand and eye, so to speak. We flashed some 4-5s, on-sighted a couple of 6As, struggled up a probable 6B, and were roundly defeated halfway up a 6C. It took the skin off my fingers, I tell you that.
The routes seem to have been set mostly in the easier range. I've spotted a handful of probable 6Cs and 7As, but we're short on 6Bs. But the leading looks very promising, with two new routes looking about in the 6A range over the roof, and one which is probably a reasonably doable 6B. For definitions of doable that include with a couple months' practice, maybe.
I can't bend my legs now. Isn't life great?
