Rock Climbing --- 4/26/2013 - 4/28/2013 --- Gunks

Gorgeous weather at the Gunks. On Saturday, Leo and I climbed Birdland. Then I climbed Alphonse in one long pitch with Leo and Tim following. I got to yell "Leo and Lyons, you are on belay!" which was probably the highlight of my day. Alphonse is a really fun climb. I had done it once, nearly a decade ago, and didn't remember it at all. Then Tim and I swung leads on Yellow Ridge. Finished the day leading Yankee Clipper to set a toprope and climbing Red Cabbage Right to clean the anchor. On Sunday we spent a long time on Hans Puss and Feast of Fools then finished early with a climb up Arrow.
