My first multi-pitch. Climbed “conquest of paradise” up Hannibal mountain (5c-6a). Novelty bus station at the top. A friendly couple coming up the same route behind me consisted of a 65 yo Russian husband and wife. While this wasn’t the hardest climbing in the world, 6a is pretty solidly intermediate territory, real climbing, for 6 pitches. The husband shared they usually climb harder but the wife is recovering from chemo.
