Sun Wall...Pisgah Forest
Today I met Ezra, a very good climber, who
kindly let this 59 year old "has been" use his fixed rope as protection to
climb part way up the face of Sun Wall on Looking Glass Rock in Pisgah
Forest near Brevard, NC. Really felt good. I have not climbed in
over a quarter century and was not sure I could do it, but Ezra knew just
when to encourage me. He obviously knew exactly what I was feeling. These
photos were taken before I went up. Forgive me, but I do not remember the name of the lead
climber shown setting the anchors for the safety rope. Thanks guys! You have no
idea how good it felt to have rock beneath me, sky above me, and God's
wonderful vistas all around me once again. I had almost forgotten how magical a good
clean climb can be.
