Don't tread on an ant he's done nothing to you
And there might come a day
When he's treading on you
Don't tread on an ant you'll end up black and blue
You cut off his head
Legs come looking for you

A shot from the top of the 1st pitch back down to me moving up the initial bit of ice.
I didn't climb this pitch terribly efficiently. I worked up into the cave a little too high, then had to make several corrections moving up onto the first slab into the corner. I had climbed the pitch twice before and the last time I had flown up (seconding, of course) to the belay. For some reason I was a little bit out of it, and this was probably related to my intense desire to lead the second pitch, where my mind was already waiting for me to show up. Which is to say, a bad thing. Anyway, I could have done better and wasted a bit of time, unfortunately. |
