"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Slot MachineWith Frank. Took him up Chasing Shadows, then he belayed me on Edge Dressing and Slot Machine, my first time on both of those. Of the three parties I witnessed climbing Dark Shadows that day, they all chose to bail without doing the 4th pitch (the splitter). I find that strange. Gym climbing has moved to the desert? Slot Machine protects way better than it sounds on Mountain Project. Bomber pro in good rock. I really enjoyed this pitch.
