Returned in March of 2000 for
my second trip down to J-tree and ended up getting on a few more
exciting climbs than last year. The highlight of this trip had to
be leading Hobbit Roof, 5.10d that I had seen in a few pictures and
really wanted to climb. Double Dip, 5.6; Stitcher Quits, 5.7;
Pope's Crack, 5.9; Out on a Limb, 5.10c; Cryptic, 5.8 and Tom Bombadil,
5.7 were also memorable climbs from this trip. We had to leave
J-tree a bit early due to 90+mph winds blowing in for a few days but all
was not lost as we headed up to Yosemite
to check it out!
Adriana couldn't make
it this year but Sam, Gus, Kirsty (photo) and Ken all made it down from
Salt Spring for a break from the winter time blues |
