mike m: this is our summer vacation and I haven't seen my sis in three years so first we went to her house in northeastern Washington, then we met up with some long lost friends in Vegas; friends I haven't seen for, like, 25 years. I really love Red Rocks. I could easily stay there climbing for my whole five week summer vacation, but I've got people to see and places to go!

Just because it hasn't snowed in two weeks doesn't mean I stay home. Beautiful sunny day for some trad in A-Hills!

Got to pull on some plastic for the first time in over a year, after getting the OK from my doc.
Sure felt good to be 'climbing' again. Hopefully get on some ice soon and see how bad things really are.

Had a great day following my buddy up a heady Ice Lead of 11th Hour this morning.Then headed to the tower with Jack at noon and did TAD to the summit through the meadows. Got up to the Meadows at 4:15 and took a five minute break. We decided to head for the top even though we had less than 40 minutes til the sun went down and 200ft of 4th class and do 3 long rappels still to go bwhich meant we would be down climbing the east ledges in the dark. It was Jack's first time on TAD and he cruised it and had a lot of fun. I knew he would eat up the couple of hundred feet of fat hand crack sprinkled in with about 70 feet of wide pods in a couple of spots.
