the ghost

The Ghost River Wilderness Area is an amazing place.

Hiking in

We hiked in to climb Fang and Fist, WI5. Before this, the hardest thing I’d climbed was WI3 (or maybe WI3+).

Fang and Fist

This photo was stolen from the Interwebs – it was taken not long ago, so the climb looks roughly the same now. Because when we arrived at it, I was too busy being terrified by how steep it was (and wondering if I’d actually be able to climb it) to think of taking photos.

The mission was successful though. Despite my fear that my arms would fall off, we managed to get up all 400 metres before the sun set, only to rappel down and hike out in the dark (hurrah for headlamps).
