Climbing season is quickly approaching

Ahhh…Fall. When the insects and reptiles slink away into their prospective homes, and rest up for the next time when they plot to antagonize us and test our patience. Flowers bloom, the leaves turn and the climbers come out of their gym hibernation for some much needed face time with the rocks we love so much. The tinkering of belay devices, and the thumping of backpacks and crash pads hitting the ground. With fingers taped and chalk on hands we start the new season…

I am not much a sport climber, I prefer bouldering. But I did enjoy this route simply because of the jump start, and the mantle.
