- Description:
- After a night of a few drinks and more poker, we had a couple of hours
of climbing to do before heading back to Denver (CO). I was
definitely over-served and wasn't sure I could belay let alone climb.
We decided to lower in just below the lower bridge to end the trip with
a bang. I dropped in first cleaning as many icicles off the pillar
as I could on my descent and climb since the water ran Monday night. We
then each took a turn and also
set up a rope to the north of the main climb we were on. After
everyone got their run in, we called it a day and began the long drive
back to the Front Range. It was another fun and successful trip to
Ouray (CO).
