My 11 year old son and I climbed Mount Muir on Friday. It was his first mountain and he performed very well. He pretty much lead the way. He impressed me a couple of years ago when he climbed 5.10b top roped. But, needless to say, I'm a proud dad.
The weather was beautiful. The cables were not up yet. We did not need ice axes or crampons.
We ran into Alan at the base of Muir. He is a 69 year old who is attempting to climb all fourteeners in CA.
Using Bob R's (Thanks Bob) instructions, we made it to the airy summit. I was there with an 11 year old and a 69 year old. Wow.
