As usual, a splendid time is guarenteed for all. This Blog will serve as a PRIMER for those who are interested in visiting the Park with us.

Day I 2013
The day after MLK weekend and the Presidential inauguration brought controlled chaos to our travel plans leaving DC Metro. Once in the air all that was an afterthought and we landed in Montrose Colorado at noon. Jason Ryan and Justin were already climbing in the park when we arrived at 130 in Ouray and by 2pm we got our climbing gear on, walked 15 minutes to the crag and tied in for the first ice of the season! This was the first time we climbed on the day of our arrival. It felt good and the few weeks working out in preparation for this week really paid off. We took a couple laps each and returned to our rooms to unpack. This was superb.
