T-Shirt Weather in February
Finally, I've put some solid days in at Indian Creek. The weather was (more or less) beautiful, and the place was deserted. We were climbing in t-shirts in February, it was crazy. We also got snowed on a little bit, but you can't have it all. On Sunday, we were the only car at the Supercrack buttress parking lot. That was a little surreal.
We took advantage of the opportunity by getting lots of mileage in on handcracks to get back in shape for desert climbing. (Normally all the good handcracks have big crowds, but not this weekend...)
fortunately, we could get on whatever we wanted, because there was no one there. Unfortunately, I got a little too enthusiastic and kinda tore up my hands. Fortunately, it's snowing in the Wasatch, so it's time to go heal and ski some pow.
Life is pretty good.

The Kevin Guide to climbing bumming:
1.)Climb
2.)Hurt self
3.)Go to SLC to ski and heal
4.)Repeat
I submit that you're too fragile. Man up and get some blood-absorbing chalk.

Hey, it's been working out great so far. Why stop a good thing? The powder was good today...
Plus generally speaking, snow here = cold and rainy in the desert. So I'm following the weather too. If only by accident.

I've heard reading is very easy on the hands.
Perhaps reading is really the sport for you?
