saragrace Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) Trip: Red Rocks, NV Date: Dec 27 2007-Jan 2 2008 Trip Report: Click here for the full Red Rocks Trip Report We spent about seven days climbing, and hit Moderate Mecca, Cannibal Crag and the boulders at Calico Basin, Panty Wall and Dog Wall at Calico Hills First Pullout, Gallery and Stratocaster at the Second Pullout, and Oak Creek Canyon. The trip was a really fantastic learning experience for Chris and I, and a sending spree for our climbing party. The weather was nice -- we had chilly overnight temps and some chilly climbing days, but when it was cold in the hills the boulders were warm and sunny. This was my first trip to Red Rocks, and I can't wait to get back. In fact, I'm having a hard time figuring out why we actually came home........ Gear Notes: We lived in base layers and fleece (and sleeping bags) at camp, but two bags were overkill even on our chilliest night. Edited January 4, 2008 by saragrace Quote
Sherri Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) In fact, I'm having a hard time figuring out why we actually came home........ Because you missed the rain? Nice work SG! Sounds like you had a great time and caught the RR bug! I bet we'll see you down there again before long... Edited January 5, 2008 by Sherri Quote
111 Posted January 11, 2008 Posted January 11, 2008 Yea, one of the best places for a PNW-er to go. It has the inverse of our weather so we can all climb year round! good TR on your bloggle too. Bummed I missed my annual trip there this winter... Quote
saragrace Posted January 30, 2008 Author Posted January 30, 2008 Thanks! Yeah - I honestly can't wait to get back. I still have a bit of a post-trip hangover... Quote
