and spending time at the top of Estrellita, an 1100 ft. 5.11...
Otherwise, the pattern of waking up and drinking french-press coffee, taking the five minute walk to the base of the cliff and spending the day clipping bolts in the sun has been very easy to settle into, and should continue without difficult for the coming month. We have been fortunate enough to meet three excellent gentlemen from California, Oregon and Utah who have been a pleasure to climb with over the past week. Unfortunately, they are heading back to their respective homes tomorrow, but we have already made plans to meet up with the Utahan, Jeff, when we travel north in March. He has been kind enough to extend accommodations to us in our travels and we are looking forward to climbing and skiing with him in Utah in the spring.
Tomorrow will be another day of single pitch craggin' and then a day of rest on Sunday. The forecast continues to look absolutely perfect and life continues to be free of complaints. Life is good here and we hope you are all finding it the same where you all are.
That tail might be better than Bia's. Don't tell her I said so.
ReplyDeleteAlso -- is that a pool at the bottom of Estrellita?
Jesse - That is the same exact thing that Rich said about Bia! I think she would be really jealous of that tail... And yes, that is a swimming pool in the bottom of the canyon. There are actually like 5 or 6 are that complex, but it's only open in the summer. But we do have a private swimming pool at our camp ground that is even nicer than those... You should really come see it... so see you in a couple days? we'll pick you up at the airport?
