Climbing with Peter.

... whether downclimbing was an option. Downclimbing slab sucks: if you slip (and you will), you'll finish the downclimb sliding face- and palms-down along dirty basalt. This can't be good. Peter was down there, but I ... get tired -- but I couldn't bring myself to make the move, and there was no way to downclimb the slab that wasn't identical with falling. When I try to make that final move, I didn't ...

A bit stiff today...

...I led about 50m of it, more than half the tougher stuff. (There was about 15m of easy scramble at the top.) And the down-climb was quite nasty. (Someone slipped and hurt themselves pretty badly on that downclimb the previous weekend.) I found the down-climb far more scary than the lead -- no protection, dirty rock, and you're doing it with a pack on with rope and stuff in the pack. (iclysdale has ...

Landslide - Stevie Nicks

I took my love, I took it down Climbed a mountain and I turned around I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills till the landslide brought me down Oh, mirror in the sky What is love Can the child within my heart rise above Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides Can I handle the seasons of my life Well, Ive been afraid of changing cause Ive built my life around you But time makes you ...

Hiking the Hunt Trail on Mount Katahdin v.3

... about halfway between South Peak and Baxter Peak on my way back. We got back to Baxter Peak and started our downclimb at noon. The weather was beautiful, just a hint of breeze and warm, but not too hot, temps. It made the downclimb a pleasant, but tiring walk. We got back into the campground at a few minutes after 4pm. 11 hours on the ...

Climbing. Road trip, part 1.

... the wall on that one a lot; it's a vertical face, so it's not a slide so much as a scrape. I fell a lot more than normal. I was tense and I tended to jump off routes instead of downclimb. It was still good to go, I think, though I won't know for sure until tomorrow morning, when I find out how much my ankle stiffens up. (Ibu FTW.) The road trip this weekend was sort of unexpected. or maybe ...
