Stop it with the photos, don't you know I am envious, even jealous, and that means I am committing one of the deadly sins. Envy.
However, great photos you all, and be safe. Happy Holidays.
Gosh, I am envious. Sad but true. Keep up the good work, sigh...

That flow looks nice Nick.
The old Lowa double boots definitely have a lifespan, I had a pair do the same thing. Bummer.

Chasing sun today in Clear Creek Canyon with daughter Meaghan.
The first .10 was stupidly bolted and contrived, with inconsistent and forced movement, something we didn't discover until much too late. It was in the sun, though.
The second more classic route was a 60' pitch of .10a and a 80' pitch of .9+ that Meg strung together.
Short day, big smiles.

It was a great day of climbing at Fairview Mountain, in between the rain storms.

What a difference a year makes well at least a week and a half. Jaws in RMNP a week and a half ago. Jaws today. Despite the pillar falling down and worry about the left side doing the same we got up Jaws today. It was actually pretty good except for the cascade of newly formed ice falling down on the belayer from where the pillar used to be. Wanted this one badly after giving my brother the lead a couple of weeks ago. Needless to say it caused a little apprehension when we came around the corner to see about 50% of the ice that was there a when we did it before Christmas had slid off and was now cubes at the bottom of the climb.
