Write Up:We made the best of a very windy day on Mt. Yonah! The wind threatened to blow us off the rock a few times, which prompted some of our group to rest and enjoy the amazing view. The Lowers provided a break from the wind at the end of the day when John, Lucinda, and Adam tried a new route there.
John, Keith, Adamn, and Todd did a multi-pitch route on the cables with plenty of safety gear to prevent a 200+ ft. fall. Afterwards they rappelled down to the middle of the rock face and set up a few top ropes for the rest of the group. John taught Adam how to set up and take down top ropes.
Justin, Keith, and Ned got to practice leading a fun sport route, and Keith bagged his first unassisted outdoor 5.10 climb!
Thanks everybody for the great company and attitudes. Take care of those wind/sun burns!
