The helmet was just the most obvious of my gear woes! In my angst over our ‘Emperioral’ timeline of departure, I left my entire climbing pack, sleeping bag, and a box of food at home. What’s the Big Deal of being muntered in a swami belt and Mad Rock gorilla shoes compared to the – sob! – lack of homemade cookies? Alicia

    My partner for snake dike, an infamous internet climber (ha!), shows up lacking a belay device and wearing only a pair of shorts and a t- shirt. So, lent him a jacket and an ATC. Belayed him on a munter, and, caught his 50 footer on the second pitch. Darn sports climbers…

    Yeah, no homemade cookies is a real bummer.
