Kamouraska

Went to Quebec to climb over the long weekend in Kamouraska. Great time with a huge NB crew from Fredericton and Moncton.

The weather couldn't have been more perfect. High 20's and blasting wind coming off the St. Lawrence. No bugs but crowded like crazy. We ended up waiting over an hour for a line once.

Here's a few shots from the weekend:

First Evening Sesion

The day is getting longer. Long enough to make Sunnyside after work a viable option. Also happy to report no bugs on Tuesday night. The only drag is that my finger was bothering me so I couldn't crank on it very much. Hope it toughens up. I ended up taking pics as much as I actually climbed.

Adam - Topping out!

Terry - All Hail

Sunnyside

Went to Sunnyside today with Adam and Terry. Nice weather but the black flies are out in full force. I took a lot of photos...

Clipping!

Terry blasts through the crux of Quantum Theory...

...only to bail on the top-out!

This guy has a ridiculous reach.
