That's right, we're badass



Here's Craig leading on the standard route of Practice Rock in Hyalite Canyon. While this route was only rated 5.6 in the book, it seemed to me to be way harder... or maybe it was the fact that it was cold and miserable out, and - as usual - Craig made me get up way too early. The rock is like touching ice cubes! Anyway, I was pretty impressed by Craig's lead up it. It doesn't look it from this photo, but he's at least 60 feet above the ground. I was adequately scared, and happy to have him lead the whole thing. I was right behind him the whole time, though.

We had planned to climb a few other routes on the rock, but instead we decided to declare success and call it a day. We had lunch at the Pita Pit instead.
