    2nd ascent. Crazy experience. Had to wire brush the entire top out, including the slab. Took about 2hrs. Then tried it on a rope. Pretty scary to practice on fix line because I ended up landing on the rock below and swinging out. I found tying the tail end of my rope to the tree so I didnt swing out too much was key. Then decided to rig a ladder across and tie it to the tree to step across to try moves individually. This unlocked it for me. I was able to feel each hold individually, place anccurate tick marks, and do each move in control without the fear of hitting the rock or swinging out. The crux is definitely the beginning. The part over the rock, you cant fall on. Felt solid for the grade or hard. If it were close to the ground and with a good landing it would be an ultra classic. One of the most mentally stressful highballs Ive done. Super fun climbing on superb rock quality. Aesthetic and inspiring to look at. Proud ascent by Tucker
