weekend in New Hampshire
May. 21st, 2013 10:01 amI spent the weekend rock climbing in New Hampshire with Kate, Jessica, and Bruce. As with previous trips, we stayed at d'Acres permaculture and teach farm. The travel, about 1400km in total, went generally smoothly -- about 15 minutes at the border on the way down, and 1 hour on the way home. Not too bad for a long weekend.
Saturday we climbed at Rumney, where I on-sight lead a 5.8+, two 5.9s, and a 5.10a. That's the hardest I've lead at Rumney. Sunday we split up, Jessica and I did 4 pitches of Beginner's Route up Whitehorse ledge, then came back to Rumney where I red-pointed a sustained 5.8 that I've taken two previous tries at. Sunday night it rained, and the rock was wet Monday morning -- but I still onsighted a 5.8 and 5.7+, which is quite a bit more scary on wet rock.
All-in-all a very good weekend of climbing with friends.
