Mike_Planetarium John-Minna-Marissa Minna-Marissa Mike sets up our rappel into the Planetarium. I took another picture of John, Minna, & Marissa before jumping over the edge myself. Trip - Copperhead Belayer Slayer Snakey Wakey Once I got down, I belayed Mike up Andromeda(5.10+) while the others lowered down. Mike remembered that he thought it was odd when I yelled up to ask him how much further he had to go to the anchors 10 meters from the top. After lowering him down, I showed him the copperhead that I had found next to my bare foot at the belay station (i.e. not good if your belayer gets bit by a poisonous snake). Mike held the snakes's head with a stick so I could pick him up. After Marissa went up Andromeda on toprope, I got to lead it and Minna followed it up. I took a few pictures of Minna, but they didn't turn out. John attempted to lead The Milky Way(5.11)( and someone used his camera to get pictures (send me pics, John, and I'll stick them up). Trip_Andromeda_1 Trip_Andromeda_3 Minna-John_Planetarium Our belay anchors -> Solarium_ Belay.JPG We couldn't find the anchors to one of the climbs, so we clipped to <-- Wosho's collar. Paul had injured his foot during the night and was waiting back in camp, so Minna and Marissa headed out early all sweaty and gross without even taking a swim. After Mike led The Milky Way twice, I cleaned it, and we walked from the snake-filled grass to the water. The water was completely refreshing as usual. After splashing around a bit we scrambled up to the cliff tops again. Louie then noticed that she had forgotten her hat down by the river so John, Mike, and I waited on the ledge and took pictures while Louie ran back to the water.
