I’m on my fourth week off climbing, trying to recover my shoulder from an injury. I tore my rotator cuff more than a month ago on a project. I rested for a few days and started to climb again too soon and it got way worse. Stupid…..
I was getting antsy, until I accepted I just have to deal until it’s completely healed. I’m doing my shoulder exercises, icing it, and stretching as best I can. And while I’m waiting for it to heal, I’ve been enjoying all the other cool stuff you can do in Colorado. Today Nathan and I did The Keyhole hike up on Longs Peak. I have to admit I was peeking over at many of my projects on the Diamond Face, but I may not be well enough to climb them before the season ends and we head back to Norway.
But The Keyhole Route was a great way to spend the day. We started at 7:45 and topped out at 14,259 feet at 11:00. Our car to car time was about 5.5 hours. We were pretty psyched about that – the average is 10 to 15 hours. Then we found out that the record was just set a few weeks ago: car to car in 3:26. Wow!! That’s inspiring!
unlike shoulder injuries. like keyhole route.
kjempekult Rannveig 😉 misunner dere

I didn’t know you were injured!!!! Not fun! Good work getting back at it!
Oh…and Jans and I are wondering when you and Nathan are stopping by. 😉 I’m not super active anymore, but Jans could still take you guys out for some awesome adventures.
Utrolig flotte bilder av det som må ha vært en fantastisk tur!
Nice!
