Unfortunately, no one got a good shot of Sean's lead, but it was a beauty. Here's a shot of the rope with Sean's 3 screw placements (click to enlarge...a lot). |
Russ Kirkham (otherwise known as Mr. Clean or Dr. Kirkhandle) had his first lead on Folsom Prison. Cindy belayed at the bottom. |
Me (Ryan) cleaning the route. |
Cindy, who had never ice climbed before, got to clean Russ's lead. |
Time for some fun climbing once the top ropes are up. Sean on Sunday Morning Coming down (left), Sharon on Folsom Prison (right). Ice climbers everywhere!!! |
Sharon getting ready to top out. |
Sean getting ready to top out. |
 Russ working on the harder route. |
One of my first jaunts into the realm of mixed climbing. Luckily the tool placements were really big. |
This is way too much fun. |
Now that looks like an ice climber...Sean climbs between the wind caves. |
Verrry delicate tool placements here. |
 |
I'm not sure what Sean's doing here, but it looks pretty cool. |
