Session four and five were very disappointing to say the least. I fell on moves that I have done with ease in previous sessions. Negative progress is definitely a big bummer, but that's how limit bouldering goes I guess. https://www.instagram.com/p/B87dQ9DDZYq/?igshid=15rhuz24uo26n
"It's easy to play any musical instrument: all you have to do is touch the right key at the right time and the instrument will play itself." - Johann Sebastian Bach In theory this is the same for climbing. All you have to do is grab the right holds in the proper way in the correct sequence and you will complete any route or boulder problem. This is true, IN THEORY. If this were entirely true then we would all be climbing V16s left and right. In reality there is strength, technique, good head space, and, let's be honest, talent; to a certain degree. Almost all of these can be be acquired with hard work and perseverance. A satisfying yet daunting thought... https://www.instagram.com/p/B8pznlkjILs/?igshid=1vds6gj3s1emf
Start with RH on pinch with index and middle finger in dish and LH on undercling with RF on spike. RH with middle finger leading to tick on slopey crimp and bring LF into heel to cam. Bump LH into side pull, re- adjust heel toe cam. Cross LH to slopey side pull, but have weight beneath the hold versus even with it. Focus LH to thumb press into dimple. Raise RF into toe hook and twist knee up and left in order to cut LF from toe cam. LF to micro- jib. RF into second toe hook but be sure to keep foot parallel to hold in order to maximize surface area. Float RH into undercling ideally with 3 fingers. RF to smear spot and LF to crystal smear spot. Drop and flag RF and bump LH to "jug", if necessary re- adjust RH. RF back to smear spot and raise LF to good high foot. Stand into dyno leading LH. Hold swing. RH to jug. Easy mantle. 📸 - @c.j.mcentee (at Riften, Skyrim) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8GBBkkjMQr/?igshid=1uzthlzocyqqq
Yesterday I had a very good first session on "Free Range" (V13). Managed to get all the moves into overlapping parts fairly quickly. I even redid the dyno and got it first go! How long till I take it down? 📸 - @c.j.mcentee (at Whiterun, Skyrim) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7znK-kpcQP/?igshid=1jkg72to5jxmw
I realized the other day these are really the last few months that I can bust out some angsty teen poetry, so here is something. (This is by no means poetry; more so commentary on feeling your feels) "I...uhh...I worry that hard meat don't get eat. That is to say, if I ever find what I am looking for, I'll become soft and cease to matter in this world." I used to love this line from Adventure Time, but in actuality this is just a sad testament to how society does not encourage acknowledging feelings. Unfortunately, where we live it is more so encouraged to steer towards stoicism, especially men. Toxic masculinity and gender scripts make it so not feeling is better and if you do feel, anger or passion are the only appropriate options. It is better to confront your emotions. Opening up and willing to feel things is more courageous than "being above them". The truth is removing your armor can be dangerous. You risk being damaged, but it is brave to risk this as the rewards are endless and growth is infinite. (at Rohan, Middle Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7kjTuLDV36/?igshid=14vpz94yu6wcq
Throw back to warm Lincoln Days. A fun day of grabbing alpine rock with @c.j.mcentee and @stephenamariah (at Misty Mountains, Middle-Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7MO7QKjiFJ/?igshid=1cowktsz5mrpl

Cage Free ✔️ It was a personal goal to send V11 by October 31st. That's when I first sent V10. I was three days late,¯\_(ツ)_/¯, I'll take it. I'll be back for the sit; "Free Range" V13, when I can do more than two moves on a boulder. 📸 - @c.j.mcentee (at Mount Doom - Mordor) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4bocpDD6Dj/?igshid=abkv0vcsx06i
Spooky resends of some mods on Friday the 13th with @dschade9 and @alerrrxa. It's always fun to go back and resend things that were once difficult. Since school started I haven't had much time to get outside; usually once a week. I'm hoping to finish up some projects in the alpine soon, but if not there is always the front range to be stoked on.

Cloak of the Tiger ✔️ Not to sandbag but I'd give this three grades lower than what is was originally. Dope dyno tho (at • 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒔 •) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1UjHUzjNmn/?igshid=1emw8y6e2vt8f
I don’t want it; I don’t need it.
this scene is even more creepy when you realize Spirited Away was a metaphor for the sex industry in Japan
OH FOR FUCK’S SAKE!
NO IT WASN’T, YOU JACKASSES!
“Totoro’s about dead girls!”
“Spirited Away is about sex!”
You know what I hear?
“Maybe if I make up something that sounds smart, people will think I’m smart, even if it’s a complete fucking lie!”
Hayao Miyazaki is a man of values. He’s a man who believes in the innocence of childhood and has a wonderful imagination. He believes in simplicity, kindness, the beauty of nature, and the old ways. He draws on these beliefs and his personal experiences when he makes movies.
Spirited Away was made for some friends of Miyazaki’s. Specifically, the ten-year-old daughters of some friends he invited to stay at his vacation home. It’s fairly common for Miyazaki to decide that he’s going to make movies targeted at a specific age group. Ponyo is for five-year-olds. Spirited Away is meant for ten-year-old girls, but enjoyed by a much wider audience.
I repeat, SPIRITED AWAY WAS MADE FOR TEN-YEAR-OLD GIRLS.
The bathhouse? Not a brothel. Based on a bathhouse in his home town, which he thought was a place of mystery and wonder when he was a kid. That scene where the bathhouse staff has to clean the polluted river spirit? Based on Miyazaki’s own experiences of a town coming together to clean up a river. This scene? It’s about Chihiro not being greedy, because Chihiro is a positive role-model for ten-year-old girls.
The themes of Spirited Away are courage, strength of character, and individuality. ESPECIALLY individuality. That thing where Yubaba takes away peoples’ names and changes their species? That’s her taking away their individuality. Chihiro’s parents are now pigs, not people. Haku’s name has been shortened so he forgets who he is. When Yubaba changes Chihiro’s name, the only Kanji she leaves spell out “Sen”, the Japanese word for “one thousand”, meaning Chihiro is just another pawn of Yubaba’s, not her own person.
You want to seem cool and intelligent? Talk about the movie’s actual themes. Don’t make up this shock-value bullshit for attention.
You stupid motherfuckers.
Purple is Not a Color ✔️ I saw a video of @wlanglin doing this problem and it really reminded me of how we would spend team practice working on weird dynos similar to this one. (at your moms house) https://www.instagram.com/p/B06jrxCjBjO/?igshid=tjr04h2bies8
Climbing had taken me to some of coolest places I have ever been. Lincoln Lake is probably one of the most aesthetic crags there are, at least in my opinion. 📸- @c.j.mcentee (at Mt. Evans) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0tacySjZXC/?igshid=11cqtyh41gc1
