let the climbing begin...

After a few days of climbing, we are starting to get the feel back for clipping bolts on limestone.  Thankfully it is not too hard, and we are looking forward to a well-earned rest day tomorrow.  While we arrived to cold, wet weather, things have quickly taken a turn for the warmer, and we are now seeking out shade as much as we can to combat the 85 degree heat and intense sunlight.  From what we understand the northeast has been seeing some gross weather recently, so really it is unfair of us to complain about heat; but when in Rome...

here are a few photo updates to prove we are actually climbing and not just hanging out on a beach somewhere in southern Mexico

We are certainly not alone down here...we have even run into some other SLU alumni climbers, here is Pete Nichols on Flying Scorpions 5.10b

But we are also leaving plenty of time for relaxing and taking in the beautiful environs we are so fortunate to be hanging out in presently.
