March ended in a flurry! I scurried down to the Gunks for a few days of nice weather to climb with @coppertop217 (we stayed in a school bus AirBnB!), who then followed me back up north for a very successful @adkclimb.club and skiing at @whiteface_mt. I hunkered down for a couple days while an ice storm made everything slippery and then back to Whiteface for an open-to-close laps day with the man, the myth, the legend @willclimbz for his birthday. Great way to round out the month, and now I’m back to dreaming about rock climbing!

A person holds a climbing rope wrapped around a tree on a rocky ledge high above a forested valley with bare trees and distant hills visible in the background. A climber in a helmet sits on a rocky ledge holding a phone, surrounded by climbing ropes, overlooking a vast forested landscape extending to the horizon. A rock climber scales a vertical cliff face using safety gear in an outdoor setting under partially cloudy skies. Two climbers wearing helmets and jackets smiling while securing ropes on a rocky surface surrounded by bare trees. A parked yellow bus beside a small, black camping tent amidst tall trees. Nearby, a covered round table with four stacked chairs rests on dry, leaf-strewn ground. A person sips from a white mug while seated in a cozy vehicle interior. A package of OREO cookies and a Jetboil are on a patterned table nearby. Climber ascends vertical rock face using a rope and harness in a natural outdoor setting with trees at the top and a clear blue sky above. Climbing rope extends up a rocky cliff face under a clear blue sky with sparse trees at the top edge creating a rugged outdoor setting. A climber ascends a bouldering wall with colorful holds while several people observe in an indoor climbing gym featuring padded flooring and overhead lights. Two people wearing ski helmets and goggles are smiling, standing on a snowy mountain with a wooden railing and a distant view of mountains. On the jacket, text reads FISU University Winter Games 2023 KARBON. Two people wearing helmets and ski goggles smile while sitting on a ski lift surrounded by leafless trees, both wearing winter jackets, one in blue and the other in red.
