Because this is the farthest they have gotten .Because they usually ca n't make it that far .Because they have n't done this in a while .Because this is something they do n't normally do .
What may be the reason why they were so thrilled ?
I just stepped into the already carved out steps where I could shove my toes into the mountain side and let my cramp ons work their magic . Do n't get me wrong , it was stressful and I was pretty tense , but I made it to the first anchor , thrilled ! to say the least .
