Guys, guys.... I went rock climbing for the first time on Saturday and... I had all the fun, like every single bit of it. I was there for three hours and would have stayed longer had my friend not wanted to leave the gym. I'm already itching to get back and am considering buying a membership for the year. It's one of those activities I wished I would have started a decade ago!

I managed to get up all the routes I tried up to a 5-11 difficulty thing (cheated a tiny bit by grabbing on to some easier trail stuff on the side), only fell once. Coming down was sort of awkward at first, but some dude saw me coming down and gave me some advice and then I was swat repelling the rest of the day. Thanks for the thread too, made the first time easier!

It's kind of weird but it definitely stretches that region pretty well if you're delicate about it. It's also amusing to imagine people reading this post and doing it at their computer.

Totally just did this.

Is it just because of the smaller hand holds and the more vertical nature that increases that difficulty stuff?
