Description

A fine April day: blue skies, warm sun, no wind or rain!
Today I instructed my daughter, Lizzie, on gear placement and belay building.
I then led crack 3, with her seconding.
We then climbed as far as the first shelf. I demonstrated setting up a simple belay, and Lizzie repeated the demonstration. we then abbed down, then Lizzie led her first ever pitch ("like a boss," in Lizzie`s words).
