Happy New Year!!

The Asana Crew got out yesterday to do some climbing at Swan Falls on a semi-blustery, but beautifully blue-skied Idaho afternoon. Thanks so much to Mike McClure, Matt Fultz and the rest of the Swan establishing crew for the Black Flake and for Death Proof: Amazing problems! Anyone dropping into that area should get some beta and give these problems a throw.
Sus also put up a great problem just next to the ApeMan boulder. Really cool problem with a powerful off-the-ground move to some highly textured knobs. The following moves include amazing slopers and some serious high-stepping to small crimps. After a great 3-person send train, we think it goes at like V6. He called the gropey line "Static Bling".
Conrad and Sus were both on fire getting the direct send of Black Flake (V6ish). Conrad also did the sit, which looks like a definite use of power.
Finally, Conrad wrapped up the day with a dramatic sun-setting send of Death Proof (V10). Those slopers are so steep that it seems almost impossible that anyone could stick. Thank goodness for chilly friction.
