Leavenworth: Hit or Miss

The plan for Friday was to go to gold bar, but as we aproached the town on highway 2 the rain made it clear we were going to be driving for another hour. Not to worry, but as we drove into the Forestland Parking lot and hiked to the boulders, most were wet! David and I had a fun warm session at Sunny and Steep boulder and than hiked on down into the very crispy shade and watched Johnny on a new project right of Busted V8, which David came close to sending, doing all the moves but not linking. Next up was JY and by the looks of things it hadn't rained here. After we epicced on Right Angles V8 we moved on up to Mad Max V7 and with some good friction I managed to send it! Next was Beautification which happened to dry out by now. This is a really stellar looking line and after some burns, I began comitting to the huge move and came close to sending, slipping off the slanting jug.
With some daylight left we moved over a little bit to the WAS boulder. After a couple good burns, David SENT! I also manged to finish it off as well as Is, which was exciting due to a wet top out.
