Schleppers

Connecticut is climber hell. At least that was what I once thought. Of course my experience had yet to run as far as, say, Kansas. So at the time I was in possession of this odious opinion I was clearly an ignorant twerp. But now I know better. Connecticut is merely purgatory compared to, say, Kansas.

This is the story of a trip that I recently took with Leon Islas. We drove across the continental USA and climbed at a few different places. As we went along, I kept a sort of diary of things we did and saw. Some people have expressed a desire to read it. Next time they'll probably know better.
