When Climbers Get Bored...

Tuesday evenings I climb at the YMCA in Red Wing. The routes haven't been changed in many years...many, many years. My belayer and I decided to spice it up by climbing the routes blindfolded. Now that was fun! I finished the night scrounging for holds and finishing an unfinished route so we have something new for next week.

Great Idea, Nora.

We might have to try that.

Really it was fun...like playing in the dark. You had to feel with your whole legs to mark your foot holds. Concentrate on your balance...overhangs were the hardest(of course)...and make sure you lift the blindfold to come down. See you tomorrow!
