Beautiful weather and the outdoors called to us this weekend, so we headed over to Pixie Boulder. Daddy and Munchkin wanted to attempt to tackle several of the lines on the boulder. Munchkin was a little more hesitant than Daddy, but she did well for her first time out climbing in quite some time.
She was happy to make it to the top of the boulder, but she wasn’t all that thrilled with needing to climbing back down. (I tend to agree that the trip down tends to be a bit more nerve-wracking.)
Daddy had a blast trying different techniques and problems (lines). His height gave him advantages on some lines while it gave him fits on other lines.
“You want me to jump? From here?” There were several conversations back and forth throughout the climb as Daddy encouraged her to try things that were within her skills but slightly outside of her comfort zone.
This line was quite tricky and didn’t get defeated this time out, but some progress was made on it.
Daddy and Munchkin did a scramble up the face of the boulder shortly before we called it quits for the day. It was a fun family outing.
