Alma makes the black hills look cosmopolitan. Was a little disappointed there wasn't more but fun to swing the tools again. We did three laps on the central, Scottish gulley, and top roped an absolutely pouring pillar on the right. I did two leads and jack did one. Allum all a pretty fun day. Also checked out the mine a little.

Something in the indoor University gym, but it beat doing nothing. I suspect most here will understand how difficult time I have getting excited about gym climbing, but here's my excuse. Please note that the track of the storm even hits the east side of the Cascades.

Shameless self aggrandizing........Actually today climbed at the Oak Creek Overlook. Have had a couple weeks of searching out the lesser climbed lines there. Talk about a treasure chest of goodies........Smiles all around. And if you think there's only moderates there, you may be surprised. My young rope gun friend who is onsiting some proud 11+ hung quite a few times on a classic in your face 10 + there. I should take some pictures, but I'm always too bust climbing and having fun !But to the self aggrandizing.....my buddy took some photos of a few weeks ago at the creek: Wiggins I. To not self aggrandize I did not onsight this one, but do believe with the right rack aka 6 #4 exactly friend size cams, one may have a chance ! This is one of the most beautiful cracks and settings I have ever been on at the creek .Hope this equates to climbing Porn. Sure had a sublime day in perfect weather on the basalt of the Overlook today ! Get some tomorrow y'all, Cheers

Jack running it out on the Scottish GulleyI TRed the pillar, but it was absolutely gushing water so leading it seemed out of the question.Jack did great job doing a 300ft pitch that had a lot of low angle ice. We simuled a bunch as all the other routes had at least two tr's on them 40ft up. It ended up being really fun.Some shots from climbing at Lincoln the last couple of days. Jack got a couple of good leads in and I think we sampled about all of the fat ice getting 4 or 500 ft in each day. Little disappointing there wasn't more ice in as it looks like some of the steep fat flows were yet to touch down, but not bad for the first couple of days out.

Climbed Bitty Buttress in Boulder Canyon today. Beautiful temps in the 60's. It was our first time rock in a while but especially nice after skiing the last few days.

What did you climb today?
Half a pitch in freezing temps with screaming wind. And I was just belaying.
As the wise man says: "F*#k that sh#t."
And as she said: "Let's go back to town and eat pastries and drink lattes."
