DPS Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 I just wanted to mention what a great partner Paco is. Thanks for climbing with me! His enthusiasm and skills were much appreciated. As luck would have it, the hard leads fell to him and he did it without complaining. He climbed the last two pitches minus one crampon and still insisted on making the summit rather than bail down the decent. While lost in the talus he tirelessly searched for the right way with a dimming headlamp while I passed out and dreamt of a warm bed.

David_Parker Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Dan, the talus field can be confusing in daylight. We were fortunate to descend in daylite, but I remember thinking, "I wouldn't want to do this in the dark!" I'm glad I've done it once for the next time if it does get dark! Ahhh, climbing in November! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
