Some of the 8/18/07 Pemi loopers and other supporters had a blast as either climbing participants or spectators or both post the pemi loop on Sunday, 8/19/07 at Echo Lake State Park. I believe we were on Cathedral Ledges? (an important detail that escaped me so someone please correct me if I am wrong )
NIF, CBCBD and MatsRoing were the experts on hand while Skimom, BoB and Mtnpa took lessons from them and Gillian and I cheered them on. They all did very well but, in my view, hats off should go to Skimom who was seemingly fearless and scaled three different sections at about 5.6 pitch to nearly the top!
I was quite impressed and though curious about rock climbing, decided that a visual presentation/observation session was as far as my participation would go on this occasion...
This is a picture album TR which words could not better convey as you will see while viewing these here: http://hikeramiga.phanfare.com/album/387459#imageID=24474968
Again, everyone did superbly!!
