Santa Claus gave me the best Christmas present ever! I sent Phenomena V14 (8B+) in Hinokage, Miyazaki!!! This was the 2nd ascent after Dai Koyamada and the first female ascent!! I once again surprised myself by sending it after about 30 MINUTES of working on it!!!!

This was the 14 year old's 5th problem in the ~8B+-range and I would be surprised if the first 8C is far away considering how quickly she dispatches 8B+'s...
