It was AMAZING.
I challenged myself to do more than I thought I could; I saw the rocks upon arrival and thought, "No way in heck can I climb those!". And yet, I finished 5 climbs, repelled myself three times, and was told I had the best belaying technique. Whoo!
On the first climb, I made it about halfway up and slipped. Terrifying! I probably stood on the rock for 5 minutes just holding on for dear life. :) I finally made it to the top, and Fred Stanley showed me how to repel down.
Look at me go!
After that, everytime I started climbing I was fine, until I got about halfway up and realized I was on a sheet of rock and the only thing holding me up was these crazy shoes and a slight bump in the rock!
Afterwards, we made it to Leavenworth and had dinner at Gustav's. Pretty good, got a burger this time but should have stuck with fish and chips. :)
HOW A PERSON PLAYS A GAME SHOWS SOME OF THEIR CHARACTER; HOW A PERSON LOSES A GAME SHOWS ALL OF IT.
