11/4 ABS Bouldering Competition at Red Barn

I can't even begin to tell you how much work this thing was. I personally spent 30 hours this past week building the new lap room and 12 hours setting on Friday (in addition to being a full time student), and Seann and Tom put in far more work than I. It looked like everyone is really psyched about the result, so that made it all worth it in the end.

Front right corner of the new lap room. I still have this feeling that it's all a dream, and that there's no way the room can possibly be done yet. The room really is almost too good to be true with all the new walls and new floor.
The back right corner and the centerpiece wave-like wall. The idea of putting the lights on the columns and putting cages on them is $$$$$.
The mini cave in the front left corner.
The back left corner. The slight overhang turned out to be a really good angle; I think we'll be able to set some really good beginner problems on it.

Ian working a V7+ on his way to winning the comp... by a very significant margin. I'm not sure if he eventually sent this problem or not. I do know that he has climbed as hard as V12, and is strong as fuck.
