Brandon climbing a really tall wall




Here are two pics of Brandon climbing the tallest outdoor artificial climbing wall in the U. S. We were at Snowbird a while ago, and he climbed the wall several times! I have been rock climbing with Brandon lately, and I am starting to get the hang of it! It's fun. I am also including a picture of me and Sam on the chair lift.

That's quite a wall! Is there a bathroom at the top? I ask b/c if I had to go at the top, I probably wouldn't look for a restroom.

BTW, what kind of shoes work best for rock climbing? I ask because I think we might do some rock climbing this summer and I want to well equipped.

There are rock climbing shoes that you can buy at REI. You might be able to rent them...Brandon is the expert. He is in the process of certifying to be all sorts of official things in the climbing world. Maybe when we're up in Utah this summer, we can organize a trip to some kind of wall....did you know that the kids and I will be up in Utah May 20-June 30 (approximately)? I think B might come up for some of that. Then, of course, we are coming back up at the end of July. Also, we'll be there next week (March 22-30). Maybe we should just move up there!

That wall is impressive! I have this visual of dan urinating from the top. Shoot, if you make it all the way up there you should be able to have a little fun with it, right?

I couldn't agree more!

If I had to go to the bathroom, I don't think I would notice anything but butterflies in the stomach once I got up that high. Either that, or I would experience sudden incontinence.
