^^^^Are you two a cool couple or what?
I like how your climbing shots always show me what I don't expect to see in Arizona.
Thanks, sweet Sullly. Arizona IS quite beautiful.

Gumby!!!! THAT is a cool shot of you on the columnar basalt!
Drljefe and Leggs. You two always have nice climbing/rock shots. AZ really does have the variety...I can attest to that from some personal experience.
I did laps on something today...but it feels more like it did laps on me right now lol! In a good way. Hand to fist to butterfly stack to hand/fist stack and calf cam.

HighTraverse-That's my favorite spot in CRSP. It feels like it's gotten a lot less obscure over just the three years I've known about it. It's still not as big a party as, say, Indian Rock, but I've met other climbers there almost every time I've gone for the last year, compared to the first year we went there we exclusively had it to ourselves.

We were the only climbers. A few hikers showed up from Goat Rock. We approached from the lower trail. What's that rock called?

Mount Doom. Love the view looking down the canyon. I like to take first time climbers there because it's a cruise up the long face, but it has such great exposure, and they can make it almost all the way to the top before they get stymied by the crux high step.

Yeah, the high step was good. Not very hard if you're patient. To make it more interesting we ascended the arete on the left to get up to the step. We also started from the very base which also had some good moves.

If you talk to the big Pacific Islander looking guy I run into sometimes (not Timo), he says they used to call that rock something else.
If you go into the cave start, to the right-side of the face you're talking about, there's a bolted 5.10. Crux at the exit moves.
Also, on the opposite side of the face you did there's a 5.10b that is pretty challenging. Be careful halfway up. There's a 2' x 1' block that is good hands, but is loose.
Good location that place. Nice views. Never anybody there.

My cousin and I went Castle Rock this morning for a very efficient half-day of climbing. We hit Cal Ridge and (I think) Platypus Rock, did 5 climbs each (well, 4 1/2: Ayatollah had us both stymied), and were back home again by 12:30. The weather was gorgeous, the mosquitoes only slightly horrible, and we beat the Memorial Weekend mania.
