Climbing Supplies


Well to the surprise of most I have continued my rock climbing endevours into the year 2008. Some new gear has been purchased. My beautiful (if not quite painful still...) shoes, a harness, chalk bag and chalk, as well as a carabiner and atc belay device. The carabiner and belay device I won't be using just yet as the gym provides the gri gri belay device (thing that holds the rope and stops it from slipping when you fall..) which is bolted into the ground. Today I went bouldering with my friend Mike. We did about 1.5 hours in which I was exhausted afterwards as I was trying new holds which pretty much destroyed my hands and grip for a few hours. Ah well. Hoping to get some top roping in on Wednesday.


P.S. Awesome job on the layout Taylor!
