Orcas Island, San Juans

Wendy Ayres, Thomas Deml, Martina Guttenberger, Myself

8/13 - 8/14/05

I've been side-lined from climbing for much of August and September to recover from a knee injury.  While I am upset about missing out on the best climbing months of the year, it gives me an opportunity to get my kayak back into the water.  It wasn't too tough to convince Thomas, Martina and Wendy to put a weekend outing together.  I think everyone was ready for a break.

 

Waiting for the ferry.

Breathing life back into a 1963 Coleman stove.

Thomas & Martina contemplates as to why we even climb at all.

Not quite an 'alpine start'.

Thomas and the 'Jesus' seal. (The seal is resting on a shoal that lies just under the water.)

View from my boat.

Wendy adorned in her awesome hat.
