Posted March 6, 2009 at 6:49 am · Comments { 4 } ·

In addition to his FA of The Machinist (V13), Nalle Hukkataival managed another V13 FA before leaving Hueco Tanks. He climbed an obvious sit start to Dirty Martini On The Rocks (V9-12 on 8a.nu) to create Tequila Sunrise (V13).  Check out Hukkataival’s blog for his updated U.S. trip ticklist where we learn that he flashed a grand total of 4 V12s while in Hueco!
