Working my way up dance!

My second time out rock climbing! This at Shovel Point on the North Shore.

I don’t remember that name of the climb, but I do remember feeling like I was being stretched on the rack.

Early Fall at Shovel Point North Shore MN 9-2003, just one of the many climbs in the Western Area. Photographer and belayer is my climbing partner Craig F.

Got to get outside in the fall because you know what is coming next! Winter..

I love this area, any time of the year it is Beautiful!

Rappelled down first to see if I could lead it but found very little to none for protection so I decided to top it.

Decided to skip the crack and make it a bit harder (5.9?)

This is my very first time on rock ever. It was terrifying and great! I have been hooked ever since.

This was an amazingly gorgeous autumn day in 2004!

The hanging belay on The Great Yawn.

A little over cammed but no worries I got.
