It's been a little while since my last Post, but allot going on. I bought a static rope for rapelling & ascending. I have set the rope 30 feet up a tree in my yard for ascending and of course descending (what or in my case "who" goes up must come down). Using the Texas prussics set-up, I go up and down, what a fun way to really work out my core strength and practice mountaineering skills. Of course my kids think I'm either crazy or pretty cool, dangling 30 feet up, I don't know which. Today, Cheryl, Tom and I were practicing our knot tying skills for climbing in my garage, in preparation for tomorrows Trad Lead Climbing Class. We hired Pat Mackin from VE to teach us the necessary skills required for advancing to Trad Lead climbing. I'm very excited to make this next move in climbing. We will spend the day at Taylors Falls on the Wisconsin side training. I will post the class results tomorrow.
In Strength,
