12/19/13 - Daniel Woods has made the first ascent of The Nest in Red Rock, Nevada, calling it V15. He described it as a "joint effort" with Jimmy Webb, who quickly followed up with the second ascent.
On the day I sent The Nest, we first stopped at another project in this wash, which we had been walking by and looking at multiple times on our way to The Nest. In a team FA effort, Jimmy, Nalle and I climbed this beautiful new boulder. Doing this other problem, as opposed to just gunning for the main prize, helped boost our confidence and take away some of the nervous pressure I think we were all feeling toward The Nest.
