My glee this week is the continued pleasure of my new climbing partner. Michelle was a caver, so she'd done rappelling and climbing in caves, but had never bouldered or top-roped for rock climbing. She was immediately able to climb 5.5 and 5.6 routes with a couple of cheats. Last night she completed her first route with no cheats, AND did her first 5.6 with an overhang.
She's an amazing partner and I am counting my blessings every day to have found someone who loves the challenge as much as I do!
