Our buddies from the gym invited us up to climb with them this weekend in some areas they’ve been developing. I was under the assumption that the rocks we’d be tooling around on were right near the parking lot so I agreed and didn’t think it would be a big deal taking the boys. Well…I was wrong. I found out that our hike out was almost 1.5 miles and all uphill. Not too menacing when you’re only hauling yourself and your pad, but when you have a baby strapped to your chest or on top of your shoulders, carrying a huge crash pad and all your other crap, well…it’s not too much fun. The area was beautiful however and we got some good bouldering in. It was also nice to just get outside in the absolutely beautiful weather. So even though we’re totally friggin’ sore today, it was worth it…and the boys had a lot of fun playing in the dirt and hanging out with the other kids. Will we do it again…not sure yet. =)
