Spring Break Part 5- Camping at Smith Rocks






What were we thinking? Camping with Thomas was quite the challenge, but camping in March, in general - not smart. We froze! Actually, Thomas and I were fairly comfortable, in terms of temperature, we shared the same bag most of the night. Thomas managaed to get a banged up eye and tons of dirt on his face to look like he was rouging it...or just a little roughed-up.
He also enjoyed the bouldering structure at our campsite.
We survived the night and had a fabulous day at Smith Rocks - it was so warm and gorgeous - complete opposite of our night. Seth and Nick White - a good friend who just returned from a mission in Texas, climbed a bunch and I was even able to do my first lead-climb...pretty cool.

Camping in March... you guys are hard core!

Man I miss climbing at Smith rock... as much as I love popping out babies it's really put a crunch on climbing.

How'd you like lead climbing?

What a vacation....the posts just keep going on and on. Thanks for testing out camping with a little one. This was my suspicion, but glad to see you were the tester.

Wow, that sounds like an awful night- a mummy bag with a toddler. I bet Thomas was in heaven.

You're amazing!

And camping + one small child = 5th ring of hell for me.

We can't wait to try camping with Wyatt! Wish we were in your neck of the woods to go with you.
