Forgot my frickin camera the last time...i hate when that happens.
So, I had to go back. Rain started in as I was leaving, I got lost twice, hit the wall at Underworld Rock, and had a Death Hike back up the hill to the car I am gald nobody was watching me hike 9 steps at a time.

OK, some freaks, caught by Dr Sprock's Candid Camera.
You never know when it will strike::

and

You'all been Zapped!

lets get serious...
Dropping down into the Ardinack Forest, and down about 1/2 mile from Tyre Creek, Cougar Country, I don't mean bar hags:

from 3000 to 2000, warm down here, and waterfalls...

Breaker Moran: Haley's Comet Hybrid, fresh from over the hill, probably grown right up here, ha!

So I figure Salamander Caroul could use a little whiff...

Next thing ya know, he's havin a frickin Orgy in the pond!

Finally! This thing tested out, jerked on it like a Baboon, and it's a go.
35 feet of Air Mattress Low Angle Heaven...

Here's another one! Only this time, a 40 footer and thick as a gym rope...

The vines are on the approach wall, this is a bad shot of the upper wall, nobody wants to wreck this beautiful moss I guess.

This is a nice crack route that has an angled traverse crux, slightly undercut...

Too messed up to work the timer, ever try to Shake and Bake while doing a self potratit?
Need to get some Top Out insphiration, or aphixiastion, whatever...

Look at that face.
Mel Gibson, eat your f*#king heart out!

Nice caves and Taforni tripouts up on the ledge hike...

View from the top.
Looking back towards the Waterfall Lookout area.
Four huge Red Tails flying around, caught one///

Back down and up thru the Ardonack Forest, giant Madrones O Plenty.
That's it.
Peace out, bitches!

Is the caves climbable ? Looks fun unless it is just dirt-clod .

I love these Crapple Pock pics. I learned how to climb on those crags, circa '75-'80. That first shot of the Beak is cool. That was one I had wired, hands on the beak only, clean press, feet on the beak only. Start from sitting on the ground way down left. Yabo style. Keep on lads.
