I miss that route. One of the best 10's in the red for sure. Wasn't it called flying squirrel or something first?

Speaking of flying squirrels, last fall Yasmeen and I were climbing those tens over by Tourist Trap. Yasmeen was belaying and this squirrel decked right at her feet. I think that it thought it was a flying squirrel, but wasn't. Very sad.

I got chased by a squirrel once when I was on the Wabash College campus. I was alone walking to my car and saw a squirrel from a distance sitting on the sidewalk watching me. I got closer and then scared, next thing you know he comes running after me and I ran for a few minutes with him chasing me. I jumped into a big pile of snow, which ended the chase. Thank god, I thought it was the end of me!!

While belaying Bart on all things considered, I was dive bombed by a real flying squirrel. Just missed me, before floating off into the woods.

No, what was really sad was that I was on the other end of the rope, not in the most secure-for-me-climbing situations and she screams! Thank God she was using a Gri-Gri because I look down and her hands are flying up all around in the AIR!

I almost DIED that day and the squirrel, noticably shaken up, merely scooted around like a Marx brother, got its wits back and ran into the woods.
