Wow. That looks like some serious terrain.
You and Pete must be in very good shape. Ten miles of THAT is like a marathon of flat land. Or more. |

Just follow the yellow stripe trail... I think coming down would be twice as bad.

Most of the ten mile loop was baby heads* not hand over hand stuff. I think the guy with the camera may have been having a little elevation issue. A lot of that rock is walk-able on two legs out on the edge not requiring four. That bit at the beginning was a bastard to come down though. Pete took a different route requiring serious hand wedging in a crack. I finally just jumped. Asking for a photo rings true.

So the bottom line is you two are nuts. With the girls away at school you could be enjoying the debauchery of your own home.

Tough way to hear heavy breathing.
