This was the first time for me to climb this route on the wall. It is mainly an overhang wall, which means it is more difficult, and a higher level than I'm ready for (which is obvious in the video, don't laugh! I know I look ungainly and pathetic, but I'm getting stronger and learning!!!). The overhang means the wall leans outward toward you, so instead of climbing straight up vertically, you are actually climbing with your upper body leaning slightly backwards, so you are using much more of your core muscles, and for me, arms! In other words, hard as hell!!! I made it part of the way up before my arms gave out! A new challenge! It was both fun and terribly difficult!
