 Valentine Arete 5.8
Use the right arete rather than going straight up, or the climb will be much harder!
Headed down to La Milagrosa with Janelle and a couple others. The road you park on is a public road, but the access is via private road. If you are out there, be sure to be courteous to anyone you meet and be respectful of the area, so that they will continue to allow access. :)

We started at the Main Wall with some easier climbs. I wasn't feeling well (from the previous day's hike) so mostly belayed. Did end up hopping on Valentine Arete, which was nice. Then we went farther down the canyon to the waterfall area where some harder climbs were. Nice little area. I did lug the camera all that way, but didn't end up using it. Just too tired. Watched the others play around for a little while, then finished the night up at Nimbus.

Catching up on some climbing triplogs I like to keep a record of these things for my own progression evaluation. (I did not have a strong leading head) Another fun climbing trip to Tucson. This place is great except for when it's a bit humid; you only can crimp with your first pad of your fingers. Any sweat and you are falling on everything, it was a bit humid that day. The area is often know as 11 heaven because of all of the 5.11 climbing there.
