Boulder Session in Barek Mountain -Broken finger nail

With Guner, we could reserve a half day for a quick visit to Barek mountain with the hope of making some progress on our projects. I had Skoptoma - 7B and crossing the bridge 7A+ in my mind. 

It was again a very cold day up in Bozkir, however as the day moved on, the sun was so bright, and the wind was quite low when we got there around 14:00. We warmed up in Masa Kaya, it was quite hot, and everything was slippery. 

We then went to the new block to try Skoptoma, and Dombisot 6C to the left of it. 

Oh shute! I broke a finger nail during on the of the warm-up tries. I've got very confused since I could not assess very well if it was ok to continue climbing or not. I taped the finger first, but it was absolutely impossible to hold on to the small crimps with tape, so I untaped it and gave it some good tried. But this simply was not the day for it, so we just moved on.

Went to Prometheus: tried crossing the bridge. Can't get the right big pinch (the right-most hold marked with red in the photo). Need much more stronger lock off power on the left arm. I do not know if this is caused by poor beta, or is it just my body is coming off from a sub-peak and I am feeling significantly weaker these days. 

I then flashed Deve - Cuce 6c, and the left-most 6b on the block behind. We then called it a day, and went back home.
