Kat, Lauren, Dennis, and I climbed at the El Rito Sport Crag in Northern New Mexico. We had a fabulous day, climbing for about 7 hours. After climbing, we had a fantastic dinner of salad, homemade organic pickles, roasted corn, and pasta.
We did the following climbs:
Short Bus (5.7) – No picture!
Lauren Taking a Ride on Herby Goes Bananas (5.7)
Kat Belaying as Lauren clips Que? (5.7)
Crest Chewel (5.9) – No Picture
Dennis Climbs Balls to the Wall (5.10b)
Lauren Calm Through the Crux of Blackballed (5.10b/c)
Dog Commentary: Cookie Belle was a good doggie; she warded off several larger doggies throughout the day. We also had Kat’s dog Niko, and the two got along great.
