Got 9 pitches in at Riverside today - trying to get ready for Indian Creek in 3 weeks.

Totally worked. No climbing pictures, but found an owl feather at the base of the first climb that was an amazing match to the rock:


And some spring flowers:

didn't climb anything, unless you count the hill behind Washoe Boulders. Anyone out there like hiking and desert choss? It's not real tall, but it's there. Never heard of anyone climbing it, thinking it might suit me for aid practice.

What's with all the chislin?

District of Squamish deemed the trail more important then the rock it seems. It backs right up against a private residence... Blew a whole huge chunk off. Fortunately it also provided an excellent belay anchor for me. That way i could avoid any pull on my spine...

I can't believe you are outdoors "climbing". Men, that is awesome!

Me neither. So happy!

Jeepers, Big Mike. So happy for you that you could leave your walking Styx off to the side of Kangaroo Corner.

You’re D rating (determination) is off the charts.

Best,

Nice Jaybro....

Also, good to see you're up and about Big Mike!

I went to Sedona, on this beautiful mt. bike/hike trail (cowpie to hangover trail/i think it was featured in outside magazine) ~ the approach just blew me away (is what i was saying at the time, little did i know...) Wish I could find my camera... it's been lost for months.

1st two pitches of Skyline - I lead the 1st awkward 5.9 pitch, the Knarz lead the very hard 5.10+ pitch. the wind was blowing so hard i was getting knocked into the rock while belaying like a rag doll, hair standing straight up, rack blowing straight out including the 5, our party of 3 decided to go no higher to avoid risking the ropes wrapping around the rock, being unretrievable. Felt like hurricane gusts of wind. We were lucky the ropes pulled smoothly from the 1st 2 pitches. Fun times with Nestor and Mike.

This boulder. Previously unclimbed. This is the easiest way up. On each aspect of the rock are more potentially very hard (and TALL) problems.



Worked on this side of the boulder for about an hour. Couldn't quite top this out...maybe tomorrow though.

Got out a fair bit last week with some routes and bouldering. Been riding on Lookout Mt. a lot as well. Winter seems to have left.Big Mike nice to see that you are getting out. Talk about being stoked. I bet belaying was never so much fun.
