The Friday post of glee is where you get to tell us about your climbing-related happiness this week.
It can be a new achievement or adventure, or just that you climbed and had fun; it can be that your favourite climbing wall is expanding or that you bought new rock shoes or that you found a cool ice-climbing vid on YouTube. No glee is too small -- or too big. Members are encouraged to cheer each other on and share the squee.
N.B. Please feel free to post your glee on any day of the week; the Friday glee is just to get the ball rolling.
To enhance this week's glee: The story of Mecca -- The Mid-Life Crisis. Martin Atkinson tells the story behind the first ascent of the iconic 8b+ sport route at Raven Tor.
As an added bonus, here's Alex Barrows on Kaabah, the 8c+ super-direct finish to Mecca.
