First session back to the Barn in a long while. Played eliminator on a TR wall before leading a traversing 6a+. Felt pretty tough, technical moves involving a lot of pinches and side pulls. Good moves, moved to a 6B and really technical crimpy climbing which I found a lot easier. Followed by another 6B before attempting a 6a+ on the overhanging wall. First clips went easy, moved well and was in a flow state until I tried a toe hook which went awkward and then struggled to hold in to clip. Very frustrating. Then pumped out. Attempted 3x more but only got to high point twice. Then moved to 6a, struggled with F/arm cramp.
