Well i just wanted everyone to know my youngest daughter Hayely age 11 as finally moved up in the climbing world. She did her first lead on Sunday. She led two routes sunday afternoon. First was a 5.7 seccond lead was a 5.6 which she also took her first fall on. She fell about 10 feet on the 6th bolt, but regained her composure and "Climbed On" finished the route and came back to earth still shaking but very excited. Another proud day for the RockRatz to add another leader to the mix. She has been wanting to try it for a while, sunday was the perfect oportunity becasue the wife was at work :)....
P.S yes i caught hell for it later !!! but it was worth it.
