I should return to some of my previous climbs with this lens - I also have been restricted to 28mm.

Hope you enjoyed returning to the Marysville area. I was running lower down in the ash forests.

It seems that you encountered a wolf-man out there in the Colorado wilderness.

Great photos. I assume this was BC (before children).

Bugaboo Spire was geographic BC. All were temporal BC.

Not sure what 'geographic' BC is?
But those trips are almightily impressive. I will never look at you in the same light again.

In Canada, BC refers to British Columbia. Also in international climbing circles.
We all have our rites of passage we set ourselves in our twenties. Mine was alpine rock climbing in North America. Yours was probably some classic multi-day grade 4 rapid trip somewhere.
BTW these were all pretty easy climbs. The harder stuff generally doesn't make for good photography on a rope.
