Did a fall colors hike in the morning and then ran some laps on some moderates at the Hobo Jungle. An excellent day. Posted some fall color pics for those who are into that sort of thing.

A little green still down low, but really popping at the higher elevations.

I finally got a nice little intro into climbing today. A big thanks to Liz and James for some solid instruction and great teaching. My first climb was a 5.8- and then I did pretty well on the 5.10B, making it through the toughest part, but a little too much fatigue to seal the deal and some half-hearted work on another section. A little heavy on the upper body and not so good on technique, can't wait to get out again, or get to a climbing gym and work on some technique. A great day overall. I was able to watch some veterans work, soaked up some knowledge, good company and good times. I loved the change of pace, can't wait to get out again!

At the end of my Rees hike, I ended up meeting Shanye and Tojo at the Hobo Jungle, which is basically at the bottom of Rees Peak. Which was good because I was able to drink a cooler full of beer on the peak and not worry about anything but getting down the hill and falling into bed. :y:

Sunday Lee showed up just as the eggs and bacon were finished cooking and LL followed a few minutes later. So we headed to the crag! I was weak and got caught on an angle on what should have been an easy 5.8, but I just didn't like making the turn. The rope was way off to the side and despite directional anchors, I felt like a fall would have me swinging like a pendulum across the face of the rock. Eventually I just got tired and decided not to keep the others waiting.

I would try another route later, but for the most part it was just a lazy day for me. It was fun watching the others make some impressive climbs, and fotg kicked butt for a first timer. Trying a 10b/c later in the day, he got stopped short of the top. Apparently climbing takes technique and not just strength! :o (At least he has one of them ... I have neither! :lol: )

One of the other climbers there who was paying attention delivered what I thought was a very good quote: "When you can't muscle through it ... that's when you learn how to climb."

Fun day. I need to get to PRG and refresh so that these trips will be more fun.

I actually went in search of the Deer Hill Trail for some mountain biking, but when I got there it was closed due to flood damage. Big bummer, so rode around on the dirt road for just a little while before giving in and going back to camp. Earlier in the day I was practicing using clipless shoes/pedals, and had the tender hands to prove it. So I didn't mind too much going back to the climbers and hanging out with them for the day. Had a lot of laughs and enjoyed watching everyone else play on the rocks. Afterwards we made our ways over to Fratelli's for pizza and wings.. definitely hit the spot!

James, Beans, and I went out to the crag for a bit of climbing. James led a couple, with Beans finishing one of his when he got pumped. I TR'ed one just to see how it felt. It was fine but I didn't want to push it by continuing to stick my bum foot into a little shoe.

Grabbed some Thai after we were all finished... because Flagstaff = Thai!
