I'm glad this is over. Now I can get my Saturdays back. I learned that for climbing, one really needs to just go to Palisades. You climb a little after that, but then descend to Summerhaven. Meaning, you have to climb back OUT of Summerhaven after you have gorged on cookies, pizza and pie.

Now THAT'S a cookie! Glad you guys enjoyed "the squeeze".
Very nice pics and time. I typically stop by the general store for some beer and gatorade. Hmmmm.
Could you imagine descending back to Tucson only to have to ride back up to Summerhaven? Check my blog tomorrow :)
