- Description:
- Tuesday morning Jeff and I got into the Schoolroom to set up a rope
similar to what George, Abby, and I did the previous day. I first
climbed on an extremely wet route that starts out with a slight
overhang. After that, the rope froze up so we moved over slightly
and got a run in on a dryer route. Brian was the only other
motivated individual to venture out on our final day. We all got a
few laps in on our rope and another one that a different party had set
up in the Schoolroom. We climbed out and headed back to the house
to find Kevin doing laundry and George and Abby already on their way
back to Denver. We completed our chores, packed up Jeff's Tahoe,
and were on the road again. It was another successful Ouray ice
climbing trip. Jeff did the legwork on the house rental while
Brian and Kevin did most of the grocery and beer shopping. George
and Abby cooked some great chili and found some great areas in the park
to climb. I felt like a bum who was just along for the ride and
mooched off everyone.
