A weather window, overnight rains, a backup hike, views that were far nicer than I gave them credit for, a tiny bouldering gym with big heart, battling the worst parts of myself, 45-minute approaches, consistently inconsistent grades, hueco heaven, cribbage + chips + calamansi, endless inside jokes, and synchronicity.
This is why I always advocate for adventure weekends.
