Rock Climbing Part 2: Galaxy Area

Yesterday was a big climbing day! We headed up Rock Canyon with Andrew and Cindy at around 10:30 in the morning. We hiked up to the Galaxy Area (it took us about an hour to climb up there) and once we got there we took a few minutes to eat some delicious sandwiches and take in the gorgeous view.


After we relaxed for a few minutes we started climbing; Andrew did his first "real" lead climb up "Part of the Tribe" and then the rest of us took turns going up it as well.


We also climbed "Deforest Moon" and we were all so proud of Cindy who got over a pretty tough ledge at the beginning of the route.


We later climbed "Chewbacca" and it was one of the best climbs I have personally had; I didn't use the rope once!


"We Have Lift Off" was the last climb that we did and we were all pretty tired by the end of it. We didn't get back to our cars until around 4:30 or 5 and when we did we all wished that we had brought sun screen. All of us (especially the three whities) were pretty fried, and we are definitely feeling the burn today.

Since our last post, Alma has conquered "A Rose is a Rose" and is very proud :) [The photo below is not "A Rose is a Rose" I'm just being misleading]


We've been climbing everyday after work and we definitely love it!!
