Not today!
It was a weekend of firsts this weekend in Arapiles. My first 14 multipitch (my first 14 Arapiles trad for that matter) - D-Minor (14) (which is a French 4c by the way, I am advancing in grades!). The first time someone rappelled of my anchors (whew!). The first time someone fell on my anchors (whew!). The first time I trad lead with two seconds! D.'s first multipitch. D.'s first rappel.
We started the weekend with Serpent (11) on Mitre Rock. The cold and wind killed us, so we moved to the other side, in the sun!

Exodus (6) could have been the first trad lead as well for some but in the end it wasn't meant to be.
We bouldered for a bit after this: we ended up doing almost everything on Rabbit Boulder (pictured). Everything but the hard V5 that is.
The next day we did D-minor. It was a beautiful, beautiful day, with lots of climbers around.
Marian fell on my anchors AND THEY HELD!! Of course, I freaked out a bit :) but soon recovered. I love my anchors, especially when they hold.
