This is where it got hard!
Steady!
All right, I'm coming down.
Tonight I participated in the sport of rock climbing at Inner Peaks of Charlotte. On a 98 degree day outside, this was a great indoor activity and a fantastic facility. Upon walking in Inner Peaks, I witnessed people of ALL ages from what looked to be 3 years old and up climbing on all kinds of different climbing towers. There is a wall for any ability level. My good friend Jason joined me once again in his support of me getting through this challenge. This is a two person activity where one climbs and the other
"belays" the leader by feeding out enough rope to allow upward progression. It is definitely a trust activity so THANK YOU JASON! I have been to Inner Peaks once before to climb so I knew what I wanted to accomplish tonight. This particular wall has a pretty nice grade where you have to get up and over that cliff. I did accomplish this once on the side where I am climbing in the pictures but did not make it when I tried more towards the middle. My hands and forearms were getting quite fatigued. I did make it to the top on three other walls tonight. All in all, a great night and a fun time at Inner Peaks for my event 21.
