Another Day, More Hard Sends In Bishop For Nalle Hukkataival

Posted February 11, 2011 at 2:40 am · Comments { 6 } ·

This may have to become a recurring item but Nalle Hukkataival spent another day out on the boulders of Bishop, CA and he came away with quick 1 day sends of The Mandala (V12) and its corresponding sit start which is in the V13-14 range, this according to his 8a scorecard. If you’re keeping score at home this is at least the 18th ascent of the Mandala SDS.
