Mammoth Trip, 2025

September 23

Gong Show



Stella gets two moves further than Bill, but falls off repeatedly there. Oh, boy, that's not what I had in mind!

In the end, I climbed it a second time to retrieve all the quick-draws, but sacrificed the quick-links to lower off of.

I'm happy for my consolation prize after not getting to North End, but feeling guilty for Stella and Bill. On the way back, we recognize Joe's 5.8, which I'm sure Stella and Bill would have been able to do (Stella already had), but it's too late. -F.

I was eager to climb, but I couldn't reach high enough for the next move. --S.
