Indoor Climbing

I went climbing with a buddy from work today. It was an indoor joint, with a ton of ropes and walls and walls to climb.
Whole Place


This was officially my first time climbing, with gear and the whole get-up. I've climbed rocks in the mountains, but never anything as challanging as this.

I started off on an easy climb. I was at the top before I knew it. Then we tried a very challanging climb. Both me and my buddy got to about the same place and couldn't go any fruther. Then we tried a medium grade. It kicked my trash. I was worn out by the time I tried it. It had a lip to it that always got me.

I got to that point both times I tried, but never seemed to make it past the point. My arms and hands gave out, but my legs wanted to go fruther. Anyway the rest of the pictures are here.

It rained on the way home. I only mention this because we were on bikes and it was great to ride in the rain.
