i'm in Trask's dungeon, send help

i burrowed under the N and S picket range like a mole person last week

Nature is much of a canvas as it is a mirror. Well done. I'm so happy to see the psych torches lit, pass that shit along! I really miss those mountains and it's great to see a trip report just like the golden days on this website. Proud

Taken from AAI: There are a few mental tools that we use when we instruct people how to climb safer and better. One of these is the use of acronyms to remember the components of safe anchor systems.

nice work, glad you guys didn't break a hip

I just go around the hardware store clipping things in their natural setting

Switching cloud storage and f#$%kint google didn't zip everything so I'm now trying to recover what was lost. Anyone have pdf's of all the AAJ's they can send me? Yes I know you can search online. Thanks! -Mike
