Give new meaning to "son on a beech"

Clarification, he is WLL Jr., not mine. Alas I have none to share pics with yall.

Thats awesome.

You belay him up there, or does he know how to work a friction hitch up himself?

Good for you WLL! Reminds me of when I used to go bowhunting with my dad when I was about that age. He would go up and set the stands with me on the ground harnesses and clipped in, then he would pull me up and put me in my stand, good memories. I pulled my 1 1/2 year old daughter up about 15feet in a makeshift harness, I was glad it didn't bother her.

Lifetime of climbing, priceless.
