I woke up early, made some coffee, fed the fish, super psyched to have the whole day off.

Then I looked outside.

OH NO! What will I do today. There is no hope of it being dry today. My one day off. Time to study, nothing like the multiple choice to keep the climbing bug at bay.

Then, thank god, my climbing partner called.

He wanted to go to the gym. YES! I said. Plastic > Multiple Choice. He picked me up in his sweet van.

The approach wasn't too bad, until we had to find parking. Wow that took FOREVER! I thought all the mission hipster's had bicycles? Where DID all these cars come from?

Finally we made it to the gym, I put my things in a locked locker. You really can't trust climbers.

Finally the climb!

Summit shots!

Yeah, my partner was pretty impressed with me.

Then it was time to recharge. Really get into some recovery eating, you know? So that's what we did. Straight to La Taqueria.

Here's a few sick shots of some wild life we saw along the way:

Total trip time (car-to-car) was less than 2 hours! Beat that speed climbers!

I did not leave a single fixed rope in the entire gym. I stole them all! Where did you think I got the money for the burrito???

Impressive climbing to say the least. Regan has some serious competition. Plastic is a truly unforgiving environment. Great pics and inspiration. Stellar TR. I see where the route goes clearly but the approach info seemed a bit murky.

How did you find parking?
