Climbing --- 11/8/2020 --- Gunks

First time climbing at the Gunks in over a year.

Andrew and I made the most of a beautiful day with an early sunset. We started on Modern Times. Then I led the first pitch of Carbs and Caffeine (onsight) which I had never climbed before. We used that anchor to get a quick toprope on Airy Aria. Then climbed Directissima with the 5.8 crack finish from the GT ledge (a nice way to pass slower parties if you are climbing High E). After that we climbed Insuhlation -- which I have zero memory of climbing 12 years ago -- and used that anchor to toprope Teeny Face. Three brand new pitches and one amnesia onsight. And we easily made quota.
