glendo

Got into glendo on saturday with dave expecting a few others but there wasn't another boulderer anywhere. It ws bitter cold and very windy so getting warm and staying warm were very difficult. Started at fin and worked our way down, but fin area got the best of our attention as it was sheltered from the wind, after that the cold added a vaguely urgent element to the climbing. mostly a tale of failure but i was pleased to come out of christmas still able to move on things, couldn't hold the top hold of superstars but hit it consistently, tried the rails twice without success and was too cold to keep trying. barely looked at egg boulder. popped over to big jim, just trying smear and smear left. preferred left on the day but both magic. called it a day with intentions of going to zef's but it was raining sheets of sleet before we'd passed through the slag heaps so we left it.

Hit a pretty big deer at full skid after annamoe, it bounced off the bonnet into the air turning through 270' and landed in the bushes, then got up a bit shaky for a minute and wandered off. i'd like to think there was no internal bleeding.
