Grimm’s Stairytales

Unfortunately the lights were out last night in the area we had setup top rope on: Move Over Brussel Sprout (20), Far Out Brussel Sprout (20!), Blue Veined Custard Shooter (20), Arrow (19), Lost In Space (17).

Despite this, the crew showed up in full force:

  • Prince Charming (the Grasshopper),
  • Little Red Riding Hood (Red),
  • Rumpelstiltskin (Gilligan),
  • Cinderella (Nice),
  • Snow White (the Bruiser),
  • Rapunzel (the Giggler),
  • The Golden Goose (the Teacher),
  • Hansel (the Chad),
  • Gretal (Rudi),
  • Tom Thumb (the Duke),
  • Thumbling (Irish)
  • and two of their Elf groupies (always a different bunch each time).

The lights had a dramatic effect on everyones climbing ability and no one was able to clean any of the routes. Unlike the purists (such as Prince Charming), some did dog their way up after much cheating and going off route to easier climbs. Rumpelstiltskin lead Arrow with ease.

Team Vodka focused their energies on their aerobic exercises and with the help of their personal trainer the Golden Goose, they did laps of the cliff. Jog to the stairs, jog up the narrow stairs, jog to the other side, jog down the stairs and then jog back to the start.
