Trip: Eldorado - East Ridge

 

Date: 7/21/2009

 

Trip Report:

I was lucky enough to spend my 32nd Birthday climbing in the National Park with my wife Jenny. Don't let her sweet looks fool you, she is tough as nails. It was pretty rad to share what is such a large part of my life with my lovely wife. Great partner in life and the mountains!

Summit stoke!

 

Gear Notes:

Bacardi 151, Country Time Lemonade, lots of food, sunscreen.

 

Approach Notes:

Sucks as bad as I remember. Hot & steep.

Payoff is good.
