Beautiful day for climbing! Geoff and I headed
out to Square Ledge, Pinkham Notch’s local crag. You can see this cliff from the
AMC Pinkham parking lot. Access is easy from the AMC Pinkham Visitor
Center – just park and cross the street (Route 16) to the Lost Pond trailhead. Cross over the wooden bridge, then turn left onto the
Square Ledge Trail. Lots of tourists also headed to the top of the ledge to
photograph the Ravines, Washington, Adams and Madison. Afterwards we headed to Whitehorse Ledge where
I got to lead the 2nd pitch of Sea Of Holes. Thanks for a great climbing day Geoff! Enjoy some photos taken
of our day!

At Whitehorse Ledge I got to lead the second pitch of Sea Of Holes. I gotta get used to climbing slab with all the gear hanging off me. Didn't even need it all considering I clipped into a piton and then I placed a .50 cam and then a #1 micro cam to the anchors.

(I actually couldn't find the anchor at first. Started up to the tree on the
left as it had a sling and biner around it. Then I traversed back to the right
and after figuring out where to put my 3rd piece of pro, I spotted the anchors.)
