Climbing without left toes...

It's been three weeks since my big left toe took a battering in Chironico and it's slowly on the mend.  I've been climbing a little with a massive Simond rock shoe and recently managed to squeeze into my very soft and loose 5.10 Project shoes.  Wearing a shoe isn't too bad, but weighting small edges is difficult.  I'm also climbing very nervously as I don't want to fall badly on it.  I've still managed to climb quite a bit, but have to be very selective with the problems - pretty much anything which uses the left toe very little.

I've recently sent an awesome line called Oscurita - a great compression problem, which mostly uses heels rather than toes...
