This last Sunday, I got to blaze up a mountainside in Little Cottonwood Canyon with Seth and Ed. They are hard core rock climbers and enjoy night bouldering in the summer because the rocks get so hot during the daytime.

Since I have only been rock climbing a handful of times in my life, my skills were not up to the level they needed to be for bouldering so I mostly just hung out and took pictures. I did try to climb for a second, but have no idea how they pull into the rock. It’s insane.

Lit by only a couple of lanterns, these boys pieced together the rock and learned the best places for hand & foot placement. It was cool to see them take it hold by hold. Maybe someday I will be awesome enough to try bouldering myself….

And, maybe someday I will have a camera that can handle shooting in really dim light without giving me super noisy pictures. Sigh.
