Careful of the cactus at the tree
Do not let the rope touch the cactus, or it will hurt the belayer's hands for several days.

Second ascent by:
ah yes....makalus
Nice multipitch climb. We got to see the sun set from the top. Unfortunately that ment we had to find our way back to the car in dark - not recommended - that place is a maze in the dark.
Also, the route was a bit difficult to find.

A bit harder in Makalus...
My first trad lead on rock - it's a bit harder in boots you can't smear with. Good for the first time you're trusting your own pro. Cactus needles in the rope add some spice...

Yup
This climb sucked, and I ran into way too many damn cactus needles. Not worth it in my opinion.
