Rockclimbing - A First

I'm kind of surprised that I've never rock climbed before.  Sarah, Jason, and I decided we would try it out.  Heath took pictures. Notice here that Sarah is climbing in the shade... important tid bit there.

That's me...not in the shade.

Sarah and me

  And Jason.....also not in the shade.

So, those rocks you grab onto were SO hot.  I almost let go, but the guy wouldn't let me.  He told me to climb faster... jerk!  This is what my hand looked like afterward.  I should have taken a picture of Jason's because he had 3 blisters immediately form on his pinky finger right after.  Aside from that, it was fun.  I used way too much upper body... should have used more legs.  I was pretty sore the next couple of days.
