kevino Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 So as I eat my second saltine cracker, this will be my first caloric intake since tuesday, thus no climbing recently. So post some pictures to make me feel better! I'll start...Castle rock on monday.. Quote
area51 Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 Winter, when you were there? We did not see a single person on Agealis, so I am assuming it was wet. Trella was soo fun!! Quote
Winter Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 I was there March '08. Amazing place! So many good routes all over the place and still so much more potential. What cool formations. Quote

area51 Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Shameless plug for my Kalymnos TR. http://www.supertopo.com/climbing/thread.html?topic_id=843303 Quote
billcoe Posted April 27, 2009 Posted April 27, 2009 Nice stuff up there! Weekend closer to home. This is what the knee looked like Saturday Am 2 days after the stitches have been taken out. I was going to sit around and watch my bros climb, thinking a 2 block walk from the car after a 25 min drive from the house would be OK. Instead, I carpooled with Kyle and everyone else slept in or went someplace dry Saturday. So I wa pressed into belaying and following Kyle on his FA. Kyle did a masterful job of "stitching" cams in horizontal flakes there. Sunday, I was only going to go for a short hike into a place @ 50 min from my house, and watch 2 buddies climb. Instead the road is snowed in about a mile below th trail head and the short hike becomes a couple miles longer in the slush. Normally this would have meant nothing..... Fortunately, I'm with 2 guys and get out of belay and climb duty so I took these pics of Adam leading pitch 2 on the 2nd ascent of the bolted crack "Jimmies Favorite" out at Jimmies. Kenny is in the pic belaying. Here's a closer look: 8 bolts, no gear just draws/slings, upgraded to 5.10B. Quote
