A few club members have been frequenting mixed climbing crags around the Wasatch to get a pump in, remembering that there's no such thing as poor rock with tools - only good choss. Notably, Eric put up his first lead on tools in Provo Canyon. Fortune would smile upon us for one fleeting weekend when a team of six hopeful ice junkies scouted up into the Uintas. Despite a record warm week, the November Wall was in climbable condition, if only barely! Top ropes were hung, the first laps of the season were had, and the team celebrated with snacks at The Notch pub in Kamas.
