When in doubt, go BIG

June 19th and 20th, the team heads back to the Enchanted Tower. We all have high aspirations but we are feeling fit and ready to send.
On Saturday after warming up, Kim and I start working our projects before they go into the sun for the afternoon. Unfortunately neither of us sent in the morning, but we decided to give them one more try in the evening after the sun had set. This strategy proved successful for me at least as I sent the 115' long "Ripped Van Winkle" with the last bits of light left in the day!

Sunday morning we were up bright and early again, and Kim was highly motivated as usual. This time it did pay off and she sent her route "David" first try of the day.

After Kim's send, we headed over to the Frog Prince wall where our friend from Salt Lake City, Elizabeth, decided she wanted to climb the short, yet extremely steep and powerful, "Frog Prince". After a quick session to learn the moves, she made short work of that route!
And so was the end of another trip to the Land of Enchantment.....but.......to be continued.........
