07_25_09 Dave and Mark & Death and Transfiguration
Dave has been getting out a fair amount doing some tough-guy climbing with some friends. On Sunday, he and Mark Cartwright did the big hike to Death and Transfiguration. I'm not sure which is more difficult - the hike or the climb!
Truth is, I REALLY don't know which is harder since I've not done the hike or the climb! :)
This single pitch climb starts high above the 3rd flatiron giving a neat view of it. Mark hadn't done the climb before (Dave has multiple times) so it was Mark's day.
He onsighted the climb! And just in time to avoid some gnarly weather that was coming in.
On the drive home, they both got quite a show of lightning, rain and those funky clouds. The crazy weather in Boulder continues.
After the wacky weather, we were all rewarded with a beautiful double rainbow! Since this day, it hasn't been warmer than 60 degrees here. Maybe winter has already arrived. I hope not!
