Space is great. A lot of character for a relatively short climb. I really blew it. Got really messed up with the feet. Got tired of hanging out and trying to sort the feet out and dynoed for the jug above the clip and missed. Duh! When I restarted I immediately found holds out left I had missed.
Regarding Things ..., your right hand toss is what I call the match. The heavily chalked hold 20" above the 1st bolt. One guy from a group that we had run across in the Meadows, met on again on the right side and followed us over to the Alcove asked to tie in for the TR. He was unbelievable. Stepped up to the two wide pinches like to was nothing, got the high right foot as you describe and just popped up to the the "match". There are some really phenomenal climbers at Rumney. Brian said the part just above the first clip is more difficult, 10d, than it looks.
Just confirmed plans for Rumney on Monday. Shooting for the parking lot at 9 AM. Kevin and I will be at Exit 6, Hollis, NH exit; off Route 3 about 7:20 - 7:30 AM. There is a big shopping center there where you could leave your truck.
Not sure what you meant by a "monday + plus trip". We are day tripping it. But we do plan on getting a full day in. You are welcome to stay a my house here in Groton Sunday night (coming) or Monday night (returning)if it would make it more doable for you.
Hope you can make it.
Bill
