Up in ADK w/ Colleen. Went swimming in the lake for the first time. Very nice! Didn't sleep well - nothing new there. Cutting across blue trail to save time.
Next time bring running pants, 3rd t-shirt, and other footwear to change into. The ferns and overgrowth were pretty bad once we got to the other side of the lake. My feet were soaked. Good thing I brought dry socks & towel. Water was a nice swim. Lantern was a good addition.

Climbing Moss Island w/ Jenn Friedberg
Went climbing today at Moss Island w/ Jenn Friedberg. I ran into John & Carl Swisher - met them w/ Stan.
Jen & I did #62, Tumbleweed. Jen dropped me coming down. NEVER USE GRI GRI again. Reflex of tightening handle made me fall faster. I didn't get hurt at all - landed on my side in contour with the ground. I took a breath, looked at her, and said, "Are you okay?" She was freaked but it was nothing. Stupid anchor got stuck in a crack though and I had to leave it.
