Dave Wetmore put together a short video of Max Zolotukhin and company doing the first repeat* of Random Man (V11, FA James Litz 2001) at this year’s Hound Ears Triple Crown event. Check out the rest of Dave’s blog for a lot of interesting stuff from the Rumney scene. An update on Phil Schaal’s gnarly skin problems that plagued him at the comp is here.

Alex Johnson gave the highballs in Bishop a break to check out the bouldering in Red Rock, Nevada where she repeated the V12 highball Lethal Design according to her 8a scorecard:
great support crew and tons of pads! long and crimpy. worked out all the moves quick and sent first burn.
Since the start of 2012 she has done some eight V10′s or harder across Yosemite, Bishop and Red Rock.
