On August 1 we headed up to Vedauwoo in Wyoming with some friends from our ward. They are experienced rock climbers and Ben wanted to learn how to climb, and I was scared! Friday night we got up there and just wandered around a bit, fixed up dinner, and told stories at our campsite... and Saturday we learned how to climb....
Cool rock formations behind us

We did it, and we are alive to tell about it! Even though I was really scared it was a blast. Now we are thinking about going again :)

ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lot of fun. So who are all the other people? Are they in your ward?
ReplyDeleteLooks like TONS of fun! I'm glad you have a blog so we can see your pictures!
ReplyDeleteRockclimbing is a blast. We have a good time. The people we went with are in our ward & in the same program as me. There were 6 total in our group, but a bunch of other people around as well.
