Joanne and I headed out towards Goodsprings, NV to do some rappelling and ascending practice. We went to a cliff with just a 30' drop, but it worked great for my first time on rope ever. My first 2 rappels and ascents weren't the most graceful but I didn't crash into the rocks bellow so I was happy. After that I got my technique down and went much smoother. Afterward we took a "quick" hike not expecting to see much and were amazed. Dozens of adits, one leading to the other side of the mountain, couple shafts, an old winch, cables still up to get buckets down the mountain, and about a half mile of cart tracks going around the mountain. We still have plenty to explore in this area since we ran out of daylight. What a great way to spend a sunday.
