Climbing Update

Got out climbing twice this past week.

Tuesday hit up Rumney and worked on getting my lead head back after sketching myself out at Frankenstein a while back.  Climbed Geographic Factor, supposedly WI5 but more like a 4 and messed around on some fun mixed lines.  Sorry, no photos, forgot the camera, really wishing I had a couple of shots of the stuff we were playing around on.

Wed. Jacon and I headed up north to North Stratford, NH, middle of nowhere and explored some super sketchy bac kroads looking for a place to park to ski the 3-4 miles into Valhalla, WI6, saw lots of "Private" and "No Trespassing" and "Cameras" signs all over the place, apparently people in that neck of the woods don't take too kindly to visitors.  After hours of driving around and hours of digging the epically stuck car out of the snow we found the snowmobile/logging trails we could take to get close to the cliff.  Unfortunately we took the wrong trail and ended up not making it to the climb.

We will be returning next week to hopefully climb the notoriously thin and rarely "in".  Pictures of our latest adventure to follow.
