Winter is coming!

Every fall...(late summer!) I love to see the first Trip report of someone's first climb of the season.  Usually is is somwhere up in Canada climbing Alpine ice, but it still counts in my book!

I always get so getty this time of year, thinking of the water to get hard and climbable, and then by October and into November I get a little sad...there is always a warm up in November that allows us to climb rock again in tee shirts and it pisses me off! HA!

The training will begin soon, first in the gym and then up to Casket for some pure drytooling and then by T-giving the fist water ice trip of the season.  Maybe a late Oct trip to Colorado, but who knows. The season will begin in  just over two longgg months in Midwest, But it's Game On elsewhere in the world!
