Starting out



So it begins...
Baboquivari Summit via the Regular Route. Climbed with Kirsten and Robbie. Such a fun time. Camped over night somewhere on the mountain, couldn't find the SE Arete and climbed it via the Regular. We almost lost Robbie on the hike out, but he came back just a bit worse for wear. In his words, "i got in a tangle with a mountain lion. Keep an eye out for one with three legs". I guess he won the fight?

I'm happy we left water and beer in the truck before leaving the day before. We drank up and all was well. We laughed and chatted about the climb on the drive off the rez and back to Rancho Selby. Talks began to drift towards the next ascent, and maybe even finding the right route next time!
