whoa! holy crap that's a big-ass piece of millipede you got there, bwah!
Gabe yeah, I'm not so enamored of below freezing temperatures on the hike in and start of the climb, and finding my drinkiing water frozen when I wake up.
doing this trip ( really, any of my climbing trips) on the cheap was key, thus camping was essential.
on the upside, I do have two lead ropes now, so I'm hooked up for the long two-rope raps wherever I go.
I'll tell ya, this past seaon Ive really become quite enamored and sexcited about climbing in that whole region defined by franconia, the route 3/302 S loop down to the kank... I love the scenery, the views, the lack of crowds (in many areas). I'm hoping for multiple trips there next season... maybe by then I'll have a regular trad partner too, so rope solo - even though I do enjoy it -won't be such a steady diet.
