"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

Ten Minute ShiftWith Zach. We climbed Ten Minute Shift one day and Time's Up (5.11d) the next. Both stellar routes by Red Rock standards. Found this route on rap with Michelle after we climbed Sand Castle. What a reward for climbing that beast. First two pitches well bolted. Last three pitches all trad. Short pitches, great rock, easy descent. A true 70m helps you pass that 3rd pitch belay on rap. Good winter sun till mid afternoon.
