Climbing Season Begins
It’s finally happening! Climbing season is here! And, we are headed to a new destination – Penticton - Skaha Bluffs. There can finally be more blogging about what really matters – climbing - especially when mixed with a little bit of a packing challenge, a road trip, good music and climbers.
The trip is organized: people, cars, accomodations, gear – I think we’re ready to go. We’ll hostel it this time around, which makes me feel a little less hard core than I’d like, but it sure makes the planning part of it easier; the packing challenge less of a challenge, we can have hot showers at the end of a long day, and enjoy an actual bed each night. I suspect it will be the only trip we take all summer that involves the luxury of having a real roof over our heads. So, we can be hard core next time.
Our climbing group is an excellent group, too. There are a couple of new additions. We are: (steve)Finn, (steven)Hoose, (janet)Interplanet Janet, (stu)Moops, (shaheen)Sha, and me, jen. (I will add pictures soon).
We have 7 days left to train* before the drive to Penticton. At this time next week, we’ll have been on the road for hours.
*Our training is going very well, everyone is climbing regularly, everyone is climbing hard, everyone is working on projects above their climbing grade. Last night we all climbed hard, finished projects and set new ones.
