Rock climbing at Table Rock - July 4, 2008 [gallery]

"...the path is slippery–may be laborious too. Caution and perserverance gain the day–the height is reached! and those beneath cry, 'Incredible; 'tis superhuman!'" -- Edward Whymper, Descent of the Matterhorn, 1900.

Rock climbing trip to Table Rock, North Carolina on Independence Day, 2008.

Routes we climbed today included Peek-A-Boo, Jim Dandy & My Route. The start of the second pitch of Peek-A-Boo has a very intimidating move that requires a short but scary step across a crevasse 200ft off the ground. Incredible; superhuman. Nice job to Brian, Tabatha and Ross on that one.
