First Climbing Competition

    We were planning on going to this next city last weekend but when we heard there was a climbing competiton, we changed our plans to this weekend.

    There were two age groups: 6 to 9 and 10 to 18.  Yep. A little rough! But the oldest kid was 12 so, it wasn’t too bad.

    Listening to the host/judge.

    Climbing warm ups and before the start.

    Final score board. They all had 2 minutes to complete a rout and got points based on the point markers they reached.

    Final route competitors!  The top 3 finishers had 3 minutes to complete the most proportionately difficult route.  It was a tough one but really fun to watch.

    Ephrem got 1st place in his age group and Hosanna got 2nd.  What a great intro to climbing competition! They got some free gear and climbing passes.  Score!
