Re: Ha!

Yeah I agree - Shirley also told me the same thing (i.e. stuff along the lines that she couldn't believe I f..ed up where I did :) Oh well...
Thanks for the visiting!

I feel your pain...

Hey Rick. Aaron's like the Toucan Sam of route finding. "Follow your nose...it always knows." For the rest of us mortals it happens.

You should have seen the mess I made of the first pitch on Sunrise Book. Hmmm...
beautiful chalk-marked hand cracks to the left or obviously untravelled rock to the right. You guessed it, I ended up having to making a poorly protected 5.10+ traverse back left on lichen covered slab to get to the belay.

Re: I feel your pain...

Thanks Greg :)
I recall taking a big whip on P1 of SR Book when I got off route on the start & ended up on a blank (hard) face...oh well :)
