With a hint of Spring in the air our crew of outdoor hooligans ditched the skis and boards for ropes and 'biners and headed south to Massacre Rocks. Perfect climbing temperatures (55˚-60˚) persuaded us into going for broke and hitting it until we couldn't hang on anymore. We were accompanied by an unexpected winged visitor – a Grey owl. Beautiful birds, I tell you.

The day was given to redpoints, onsights, and hard attempts by all. And with unfinished business, we all plan on returning soon.
