Description

We listened to some more speakers and tried to win some prizes at the ice festival the night before again.  We had some beer from Blacktooth Brewing Company, and ate the prime rib sandwich at the Proud Cut.  We started the trip off well with The Main Vein and then were disappointed with Oh Be Joyful.  As a result of the prior day, we had to redeem ourselves.  Brian suggested we attempt the first four easier pitches of Broken Hearts to finish the trip.  It ended up being the perfect choice as we all got a really good lead in and even hiked up to check out the difficult pitches above them.  Brian led and linked pitches 1 and 2, I led pitch 3, and Kevin finished the climb off by leading pitch 4.  It was a successful trip that we truly enjoyed.
