Climbed up at Community Cave for the first time this year. Got a few TR laps in. My first time on steep ice this year and man does it make you pumped when it is fairly fresh but cold and brittle. Here is a picture of Pat a new local getting a nice lead on the original Terrminator Pillar.

Weaver's Needle in the Superstitions with Lauren-backpacked in, camped near the base, it was freakin' cold (but we packed in a miraculous duraflame log that saved the day), up to the top at 3 today, back relaxing at home now... great (and slightly heinous) two days!
edited: nowhere near as cold as what I see you others up to ;-)

A little ditty:
The needle looked impressive as we first hiked over the saddle. The duraflame we packed in was worth all 6lbs-a lifesaver/and the 3 pound morning duraflame got us up & moving. Jolly ranchers made the hiking in with overnight packs on our back tolerable (it's the little things sometimes). And the "climb" itself was not hard, it was more the getting to it (& back) that had it's moments ;-)

Three day weekend and the Ouray Ice Park was PACKED. Sun and no wind means perfect conditions at the Pool Wall on the other side of town- 75 really good rock climbs. Ice climb only when you can't rock climb is my motto.
My wife, Jim turner and I had it completely to ourselves and did several sweet sport climbs.
One day out and back trip to Indian Creek (first of the year) on Tuesday and then off to OR.

Yeah that's mr witty alright and I do know how small that left is cause I popped off it every time. Good send.
Louie, good to see Valarie still killing it. Hope to see you guys in Josh in about a month.
I got shut down hard on this, but I climbed on it. Such a nice day today and felt good to be out regardless.

Climbed a little ice Friday night and climbed rock yesterday for the first time in several months. Today took the gear for a couple of walks that proved to be somewhat fruitless.

Great day @ the lake Crazy weather with wind gust up to at least 70mph mayby harder? blowing snow made it haRD to see. Isa got blown off her feet twice belaying me on this first pitch.
The sun came out for the belay. snow on the lens. check out the whitecaps on the lake! Isa had a perfect day at the beach for her lead. As soon as I get to the cave and organize the gear the sun goes away, the temps plummet and the wind ramps up 2 or 3 notches.. By the time we get to the car it blowing snow again..

Climbed in the McDowells saturday, and the Refuge on Sunday. Great days with awesome people. Nice mixture of slabbadabbadoo routes and trad routes, and getting in over my head on some scary thing...
