Hello All,

I just thought I'd share a bit.  I climbed my first multi-pitch in Cheyene Canon yesterday.  There's a two pitch route just to the west of "Old Army" route.  The climb was comprised of two 5.7 routes on granet with a walk-off at the top.  There weren't as many bolts as we had hoped for, some were broken off the rock, but there were some old pitons.  The gravel was a bit loose in places and there were very few cracks to place gear.  Anyway, I don't care much for heights and I expected to have to fight down some fear on the second pitch but it wasn't that bad.  I'm sure that's not terrably impressive but I feel climbing is a sport of personal best and it felt great to push my envelope.

Rob
