Rock climbing or Middle Age Crazy?

The link is to the area where we had two days of rock climbing classes last weekend. I thought you know it is titled UClimb "learn to climb" so baby stuff right?

Wrong.......... climbs are graded from 5.0 being the easiest and just past scrambling without equipment to 5.15 which is the hardest one in the world currently that has been climbed ( of course that will change). I figured we would start with 5.1's or 5.2's etc.

Try 5.7s or 5.8s which of course NO WAY COULD I GET more than 3-5 feet up. Talk about banged up. Archie and myself did however manage to climb 3 5.6 climbs in Red Rock Gorge KY.

Will we do it again ?

You betcha. Probably in a gym though before going back on a rock wall.
