Went climbing on 2024-11-09 at Whippoorwill!

I updated my ticks on Mountain Project but added a page to my website here.

I went with Ian and Gene but took no pictures 😢

Post-Trip Notes

  • Did not have to poop while at the crag 🎉
  • Didn’t bring
    • Cooler
    • Sweet or caffeine drink
    • Snickers
    • EDC Pouch
  • The cashews and squeeze peanut butter were nice
  • Get pepperoni rolls for food in the future
  • My climb books are old, need to update
  • I didn’t use my eye glasses
  • I found that wag bags are expensive, I’d never heard of them until there was a box on the trail head
  • I’d like to learn how to rappel
  • Took flip-flops but didn’t use them
  • Sunscreen was a good idea
  • Instead of Nalgenes or a jug I brought my bladder. It was nice, just no trees; so had to bend down a lot
