YMCA

These first four photos are of one of the harder routes at the Y. It was a good night climbing!














You can see the last hand hold on this route. I came within inches of getting it. Maybe next time!

That's awesome Nora! Way to get up that overhang! I've never met anyone who embraces new things like you do. Way to go!

What can I say Bryan...I have an addictive personality...just be glad it's not alcohal, heroin, or??? There looks to be a easy south wind forcast for Thursday...I haven't checked but Bay City may be froze enough otherwise maybe WBL?? Up for some kiting??

I could do it Thursday night, but I think the clouds are going to take away our moonlight. :( Cottage Grove might have lights, though...

I am off on my 48 hour turnaround from midnights to day shift so I need to totally wear myself out Thursday and Friday so I'll sleep at night. I'll sleep till noon tomorrow so call me then and we'll see what the wind is doing. It looks right now to be dying at night. My Tele boots came today so I'm going to give that a try tomorrow sometime also.

Good to see you found climbing Nora! If you are ever passing through St. Cloud we would welcome you dropping in at our climbing wall.

PS We do a "Women that Rock" program every Thursday night to promote women in climbing sports!

Hey Ivan!
If I get up that way I'll give you a call! I'm really surprised at the women that climb! I've see them mostly at climbing walls and not too many at all climbing outside. I'm looking forward to getting out and trying it! It'll make for much better photography!!
