Sam on Handsome and Well Hung @ Bridge Buttress in the New.
Did not send this day. Placing gear in that crux is scary. Enjoy the newly fixed nut. :(

Inti Watana on Mt Wilson Yesterday with Sam. 1900 feet of elevation gain to the base and then 1600 feet of climbing. Full value! Made it back to the car with daylight to spare (shoulda done the Resolution Arete linkup!). #rockclimbing

Dream of Wild Turkeys with my son Sam was FANTASTIC today. Epinephrine was a serious all day slog but a few routes over you're on endless rompy 5.10 fun for 700 feet and back in Vegas in time for dinner and an early bed time. #rockclimbing

Epinephrine with my son yesterday. 300+ feet of slippery chimneys is the physical crux, but the mental crux is looking up at the 1000 feet you have to go afterwards with no option to bail. SO GOOD! #rockclimbing

When a sport climber bolts an offwidth and puts the bolts on the wrong side for the crack to be climbed properly. Gonna go back, do this on gear, and chop those goddam bolts one day. #rockclimbing

It's been a loooong winter here in Michigan. Starting to get pretty psyched for Red Rock and big walls. #climbing #rockclimbing

Maybe, but you can learn so much about a person by checking out their rack. For example, my child will probably wind up discovering BDSM in college.

El Mat money pitch. Didn't get it clean, but I'm still gonna tick it off the life list. Amazing experience topping out via this one.
