Spire Rock, Climbing Weekend

Date: July 22-23, 2017

Trip Leader: Joshua Phillips

The Spire Rock climbing weekend turned into a great ladies trip with some surprise guests along the way. Joshua, Susanna, Lou and Megan put in the foot work Saturday morning to find the best climbs in this surprisingly puzzling rock outcropping. Once we got on some rock Lori, Charlotte and Emiko (and Franny) found us and climbed through the heat of the day. To cool off after some hot climbing we took a swim in nearby Delmoe Lake.  On Sunday, Kurt Krueger made a guest appearance and showed us some fun crack climbs. Throughout the weekend we learned and practiced anchor building, rapelling, gear placement and lead climbing.
