Half Day Climbing; The Book of Red Gardnerville NV 2/24/16

After a long break from climbing while I finished my degree program and had oral surgery I happened to find time to get out for a day with my longtime friend Craig Black, of Garnerville, NV ( Finance Major, Certified Level One Rope Access Tech ). We reached the base of the spot by 1 and proceeded to warm up leading the 5.11 arete (we each used the finger crack on the north face of the granite which I believe is OFF for this route). Next we TRed the 5.9 crack called Skull and Cross Bones, a climb which we felt proved more difficult with our lack of crack climbing skills. Temperatures were perfect and the calm sound of the Carson River made this a great afternoon out with our tight schedules.
