RuMR Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Sunday broke with sunny skies and pleasant temps. We arrived at the base of Zebra Zion to hook up with my buddy Paul and his girlfriend Rebecca. Due to tardiness in getting up and going we were running a little bit late and arrived to find Paul anxious to go and already racked up. Unfortunately another party had started and the second climber was experiencing a little bit of difficulty. Fearing that they wouldn't be able to get going, Paul decided to jet past them via Catscan and then proceeded to bring Drew up and then Rebecca. Drew hauled a rope to bring Rebecca up. Catscan went fairly well with some subtle difficulties for Drew right at the "mini dihedral" just past the first anchors, but the roof above posed no problems and the face climbing went well too. From there, they floated on up the rest of the pitches and the rest of us on the ground hiked up misery ridge and on back to spiderman buttress to hook up with them on the backside. I have never been so proud as then... MANY MANY THANKS TO PAUL AND REBECCA FOR BRINGING DREW UP SAFELY. HE HAD A GREAT TIME!!!!! Quote
chucK Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 That's so nice of you to arrange for G-spotter to have a good time down here in Americaland. Quote

Sherri Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Too funny! I thought the same thing(that "Drew" was G-spotter). Now that we've got that straightened out... A big to Drew! Absolutely awesome. Can't wait for the pics! Quote

In all seriousness that's why i had Paul take him up...No whining with others...
