Rock Climbing in Mali, Africa.

This was a small tower that I got to climb with my brother while visiting Siby in Mali. A colony of bats had made the darkness formed by this handcrack their home. Its both nerve racking and exciting to jam a crack when your not sure if every time you sink your fingers in that you could induce a swarm of skiddish flying mammals. This climb although short, represents a lot of what I like about climbing; the adventure, the unknown, making calculated decisions in the face of danger, and perhaps most important, being able to share that experience with my brother.
