    James McHaffie has made the first ascent of an E10/8c+ involving a direct start to Mission Impossible E9 at Gallt Yr Ogof in Gwynedd, North Wales, which he has named Yma O Hyd. The new start follows a thin seam line up to a 'Rose' cross-through move to eventually join Mission Impossible at its cruxes. https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/t.php?n=774872

    Last weekend I took a couple friends to the local crag for their first time out. Since I was the only one able to clean, others led and set the anchor, but on occasion if the leader were unable to reach the anchors, I would set the anchor and belayed the others up from the top using a grigri. That worked pretty well, though I'm aware that Petzl doesn't recommend using the grigri in such a manner (a redirected belay is preferred.) I did notice that the DMM Pivot set up in guide/auto-blocking mode had a dedicated method for lowering — using a second biner to adjust the angle of the device. Are there concerns with doing so for lowering a second climber all the way to the ground? Whenever lowering is mentioned, it's always in the context is lowering the second "a few feet" or so.

    If you’re new either to climbing (the sport) or Sport Climbing (the Olympic event), you may be baffled by all the jargon. These are the terms the announcers are using. https://www.climbing.com/competition/olympics/40-climbing-terms-olympics/
