In the same vein as the Tuolumne thread.. . . .

It's that time of year.
Winter in the desert.
With spring to come.

Must be lots of history out there (prime those scanners!)

From my limited days in that beautiful place with more to follow.. ..

Duece - That palette fire ring shot is excellent!

And I know that tree in the road - Wouldn't the world be a better place if all city planners created streets that gave right of way to the native inhabitants?

These are all from Christmas through New Years '06. If you were there you'll remember the horrible wind storm that lasted for days. We probably managed a dozen or so routes and a few boulder problems but it was not nearly enjoyable as expected. I just remember climbing with dead numb hands and ropes blowing horizontally on rappels. I just dream about getting back there with nicer weather next time. What an amazing place to be in the winter.
