Found this funny indie game on itch.io and I love the silly physics. Puzzles are challenging and fun to complete! 😆
This is how rock climbing should be!

Sent off the climbing story, after a trillion changes from the resident rock climbers. They got so enthusiastic about this that I had to remind them it's supposed to be a horror story, not a climbing manual...

Don't get me wrong, I like staying in fancy hotels and owning a home, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss when I only had a van, tent, or friends couch to sleep in.

Microwaved scrambled eggs. 90 seconds cooking time! Just two eggs, some milk, parsley and shallot, salt and pepper.

The rain stopped long enough to check out a couple routes. Both 5.9+. Forgot the stick clip just to spice it up a little. Onsighted one of them and fell a few times at an awkward spot on the other. Good day

Mother’s Day promo at the gym, so I took my mom(74) rock climbing. She crushed it. Even sent a top rope route to the top of the canyon.

Visitors climb the 250 stairs, carved in zig zags into the cliff side, to see the #Leshan Giant Buddha, a 71-metre (233 foot) stone statue, at the confluence of the Min and Dadu rivers in Sichuan province, #China.

I was trying to get a good picture of Louie's needle-sharp puppy teeth, but as you might imagine, he did not cooperate.

Maybe 2 people out there will find this interesting- here's my first climbing kit from ~1983. Full set of Chouinard hexes and stoppers (No SLCD's), oval biners, knotted runners, Boreal Fire shoes, and 150' rope. I learned to lead in the Gunks, and later climbed Devil's Tower etc, with this rack.

mystical mountain morning
with darkness and light
strength and weakness
strung out on the cliff
keeps secrets
in caverns, cracks,
loose rock threatens
- stay -
go
become your truth

Has anyone studied the incredible balance of goats? Why are they such good climbers?

Mexican with vegan sour cream and vegan cheese. So good! How to make them? Not entirely sure, involves miso and nutritional yeast and other things. Like cashews and potatoes. #climberfood #healthy #yum
