Labor Day climbing in Texas

My long weekend was spent climbing outside around the Austin area of Texas. We split our days between Reimer's Ranch and deep water soloing at Lake Travis. With the heat, the latter was amazing! It was a great way to spend a birthday weekend with some awesome people. Here are some photos from the trip.  

Fern, revisited

As the dates show, it has been almost a year since I posted on this blog. But isn't it fitting to begin where I left off? Here are some photos I wanted to share from a climbing trip to Fern, AR this past weekend. I can't believe it really has been almost a year since I went for the first time to Fern, a moss covered, leaf laden, magical place with (very) new friends and let them throw me off a cliff...sort of (in attempts to gain a few photos for my portfolio). I enjoyed viewing the two series of Fern side by side; a visual of the growth of people, friendships, physical capabilities, and work. I am thankful for the paths all those things have taken and look forward to them continuing to grow.

I had the chance to tag along with some friends to Fern, Arkansas this weekend to climb, and I am so happy I did. It was a beautiful Saturday of spring(ish) weather before cold and snow set in once again in the fickle midwest. It is astonishing how driving two hours east from Oklahoma can drastically change your surroundings. Fern Gully was filled to the brim with the greens of moss and lichen and the orange tones of fallen leaves. So pretty. Here are photos from the day...
