As I write these lines, five days after returning to the Yosemite Valley, the soreness, the pain in my hands and feet are still very much present.

It's challenging for the calf muscles and for the mind as there is just noting to hold on but perfect to train your trust in your feet as well as finding and feeling tiny pockets for placing your feet.#climbing
