RuMR Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Me an' the 8 yo are heading to the VALLEY PROPER... So, let's hear the suggestions for little folks... Quote
RuMR Posted February 11, 2008 Author Posted February 11, 2008 Both... definitely doing serenity into sons...cpf is on the list too... I'd like to do free blast with him and then bivy up there...but that'd be a lllllllong day for the little fry... prolly not cook him that bad... Quote
pink Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 why don't you warm up on the arches next day do CPF next day do serenity and sons take a rest day and do the free blast. that sounds like a great trip. i can't believe he's eight, you gotta be frickin jazzed your son digs climbing that much, good on ya man. when and how long are ya down there for?

RuMR Posted February 11, 2008 Author Posted February 11, 2008 we head down the first weekend of june...i'm pulling him out of school for 3 days... You know...i completely spaced arches....good suggestion! You are right about how stoked i am at him being eight and digging climbing... now here's the real kicker...he absolutely HATES plastic and the gym...he'll literally go and do 1 route and then just sit there saying "this sucks"...

pink Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 june is the month, long days and you can count on the weather. heads up, hauling on the free blast can suck around the half dollar. try to whip your haul line over so it's a straight haul from the anchor above so you can keep it out of the chimney.

RuMR Posted February 11, 2008 Author Posted February 11, 2008 i've done freeblast...we hauled to heart and stashed stuff...not sure what shape those fixed lines are in right now... Quote
111 Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 i've done freeblast...we hauled to heart and stashed stuff...not sure what shape those fixed lines are in right now... Just send the little guy up trailing a rope. his/her weight is way safer. Quote
