California Ice  Sucess!

Climbed this with Matt, my first full length WI4 lead. kind of wished we had done the last pitch to the walk-off but it was dark by the time we got back to the car anyways. awesome climb, deserves to be far better known than it is.

Great climb!  Sucess!

Climbed with Jacob Smith who led both of the WI 4 pitches. I had a rough day in the sense that I might have been sick. Felt ok on the approach and on the first pitch, but after a long hanging belay (which isn't required) for the second pitch I started feeling queasy and weak. Managed to climb the 2nd pitch and we rapped the route using the two pitons for the first rap and a V-thread for the second. Awesome lead by Jacob!

The hike out really sucked and took me forever. Luckily it was a pretty warm day but windy...like it always is in the Beartooths
