Back to the Valley

By Steven

I tested out a new partner in the Valley this weekend. He climbs well, better than me. But a silent guy.

Adam traversing to the chains on Ejesta (5.8) on Reed’s Pinnacle:

We mostly climbed in the 5.8-10ish range doing some routes on Reed’s, Five & Dime, and the Apron.

This year so far has been a washout for climbing. From shoulder surgery in January to a lack of quality partners in the spring and the summer, I haven’t accomplished any of my climbing goals for the year. But it is good to climb hard again. With some exceptions, if my body isn’t aching by Sunday evening than the weekend has been wasted.
