Climbing in November

[dagibbs]

While Sendtember and Rocktober are generally two of the best months for climbing around Ottawa, by November you start to bless every day you get outside. Not just because the days are getting colder, and not just because November is traditionally a month of dreary damp dark wet rain and sleet. But, also, because you are staring down a winter of short-days and snow and ice and no outdoor climbing... and double-bad because, once-again, travelling somewhere warm to climb looks pretty iffy again this year.

So, you bless every day, even if a bit cold or wet, that you get to climb outdoors in November. And, I got to both Saturday and Sunday this weekend.
