Yankee Clipper!

[dagibbs]

12 pitches of climbing, plus one 3rd class pitch. A total of something like 350m of climbing -- hardest pitches were 5.10b, and I ended up leading the hardest pitch on the climb. We did it in a team of 3, which is slower going, and also linking pitches -- so at times it was a lot of work to lead stuff because of rope weight. We had a bit of trouble pulling the rope, including it getting stuck for a while on one of the pulls, but we ended up down after sunset, but before full dark -- in the dusk. It was a great way to finish my week -- and a climb I've wanted to do for a while.

Also, my fingers are really raw -- I feel like I have no skin on my finger tips.
