• Description:
  • Doug and I checked out Lincoln Falls.  We made a couple of runs up the main gully.  The area had become fairly crowded by noon.  I hadn't been to Lincoln Falls all year so I was glad to get up there at least once.  The curtain on the right was nonexistent.  Doug led the first pitch of run one, and I led the second.  After rappelling down the gully, we exchanged leads with each of us taking a slightly different line than previously climbed.  The weather was great and we had a good time getting some practice in leading.
