September 2016. We started Saturday morning on Ecstasy Junior (5.4), with Jie leading the second pitch. Then we walked past Luncheon Ledge and arrived at the base of Triple S. We originally planned to do Marshall Madness for our first try at a Seneca 5.9. However, two guys were just finished warming up on MM to Crack of Dawn (5.10a) and talked us into trying CoD, saying the latter was no harder than P1 of MM. It turns out they were right, and we had a blast doing the MM to CoD linkup, for our first ever 5.9 and 5.10a at Seneca! In this photo, Jie is at the pitch one belay, with Chris from PA on Triple S in the background.
