North Face of Chair Peak

I finally found the time to sharpen up my tools and get out and climb.  It was a blast and considering this was my first alpine-esque climb it went well.  I say alpine-esque because it was more like alpine cragging.  It was the first time I’ve had a snow approach, sunk rock pro while ice climbing and had to kick out a stance for a belay and I’m going to call that alpine.  Good stuff and I can’t wait to get more.

Oh, about the pictures.  We had to bail mid-climb for reasons I’m not going to get into.  I took some of the pictures on the rap down but you don’t rap the route.

About Jon

So I guess I should introduce myself. Hi, my name is Jon and I am a junkie. A climbing junkie to be specific but a junkie none the less.

I enjoy sharing my climbing adventures and I hope you enjoy reading about them. I've put a lot of blood and sweat into getting the photos and stories for this blog and as a result they are the sole property of OnTheSharpEnd.com AKA me but I'm a rather chill guy and if you drop me a line I'm sure we can work something out.

Climb safe.

-Jon

I've been a little slow with the postings. I definitely haven't given up climbing but time is scarce when you're in grad school.
