The Black Dike - a bit thin |
We awoke at about 3:45, left by 4, and were at the base of the Black Dike (WI4 M3) at about 7 AM.
Then we got held up by another party, who'd arrived in the parking lot about 10 minutes before us. Still, we topped out around 1 and got back for Turkey by 3:30.
What a great way to start the season.
Some lessons:
Max is in love with his new tools. If they could belay him, I have little doubt that I'd be dropped like a hot brick.
The ultra-lightweight CAMP Air CR harness I was wearing for the first time is NOT designed for climbing, unless you're soloing, I suppose. Going back to my old Petzl until I can afford a Xenos.
