This House of Sky

(Climb date: Saturday November 27, 2010)


First ice climb of the season.  Went with TJ and Heather into the Ghost for a nice easy day on THOS. TJ is recovering from a broken wrist and it was Heather's first real day of ice climbing, so THOS was a great choice.


TJ and I solo'ed the ice and Heather only took a belay on the long sections of ice.  Heather is a 5.11 sport climber so she adapted quickly to the grade 3 ice.  We only climbed the gully section and didn't head up into the upper cirque, but most of the lines looked great!


Took the walk off trail, tough to find in many places, but quick descent.


Always a treat to be in the Ghost.

When I started alpine climbing about 30 years I yearned to be a “hard man” alpinist. Took me awhile to understand I wasn’t cut out for that, and now, I just want to have fun.
