Two Tree Manor; Temple Enhancements for your next Private Intensive Beneath The Sacred Peak!
Just in case you are picking up even MORE Animal and Tribal Medicine energies in your workouts, you might be receiving the recent Empowerment spin offs from our new Medicine Wheel here at the WF Home Temple beneath the Sacred Peak. Each day,
Ananda and i engage a Native ceremony and Blessings to our WF Tribe...we also use the Wheel to receive Teachings and/or Guidances and/or Empowerments from animal, directional, and ancestor energies. In a future DL, i will show you how to build your own Medicine Wheel, complete with the WF Tribal Blessings! In the Grandfather Sun 'sipapu' you see a Wild Turkey feather, a souvenir from the headwaters of the Santa Clara river where we were sport climbing recently. The medicine of Turkey is the "Give Away"...i will speak more on our auspicious encounter with a flock of Wild Turkeys right after our WF Immersion in an upcoming DL. 
Coach Ilg, with cleaning brush in hand, prepares for the first ascent of "Joy's Delight" a 5.5 rock climb on West Elden that features a crux with a high-step move up a bulge and onto a smooth face. This climbing area is located right across the street from the WF Home Temple. Primarily a 'traditional' area (meaning that the routes are non-bolted and meant to be climbed by placing climbing protection while on lead). Coach is already at work on developing several new first ascents for a 'beginners area' so that private students can learn to enjoy the art of climbing safely and in an absolutely beautiful mountain environment.
