Since I finished my finals yesterday, I took one last trip to Lincoln to check out some cool projects for next season and to knock off some classics. I first went to look at Improbable Boulder, since Pocket Rocket seems like a quick first V8 next semester. I did the stand, and I was able to do the move into the stand but that is about it. I need a lot more hip flexor strength and flexibility before being able to send it. Will definitely be back, I love the cool pockets on that boulder. I then went to Druid's Circle to do Lost Problem, a sick climb that I have had my eye on for ages. Took a few tries to figure out the mantle without dabbing, and definitely less sketch than I thought. It's my favorite V2 that I've sent and I definitely recommend it to any visiting Lincoln for the day.
I then went to Horse Cave to try to knock out Back in the Saddle. I worked it and connected the boulder in two stretches, to the hueco and from the hueco. I wimped out of the mantle though since I was bouldering alone with one pad and a blubber and the landing was really bad. Overall, I don't think it's worth the hike out to work on it. It felt weird, but not fun weird, and I didn't really enjoy it that much. It was definitely stiff for a V6, which I assume has to do with a key crimp breaking recently which was a shame. Maybe I would've enjoyed the problem a lot more if it was still there.
On the way back I stopped by Heart Boulder to send some easy classics on that boulder. I did the Heart, the Heart SDS, and Wishful Thinking. The Heart SDS was actually really fun to figure out the beta to start the boulder, but once you found that the rest of the climb was really easy.
