With everyone having a weekend free and sunny 80 degree weather on the first day of October, we had to take advantage. Em, Maddie, Tamara and I made our first outdoor climbs while Cristian made his first lead climb without guidance from our sage climbing partner Gael. Em climbed without anxiety or resistance and I made a pretty decent climb of 5.9+. Good stuff for a first outing. More to come.
