That darn scaffolding again finishing my roof....Nearly tipped the Scaffolding doing a mantle on the edge of a piece.....Forgot we didn't have it clamped down or many pounds of materials stabilizing it.
Kinda like climbing 10b face a little up and a little down....

I climbed Shake and Bake at West Pinnacales National Monument today...my friend Eric and I the only climbers in the park. Exciting old school route, especially when you skip the first belay at the end of the traverse and do one mega 1st pitch with rope drag on 5.10a R, 30 feet out...Felt like cloud nine after clipping the chains at 160 feet or so. Winds were howling through the trees, and we were semi protected in our lava tube. Toproped the first pitch of Electric Blue as well, long 5.11a that I'll have to lead when the wind is not howling.
What a great day!
Bump for climbing related!

hey there all.... say, (not counting my stairs of course) :O

well, i never get to climb... and it was a great surprise-blessing the other few days, to finally GET TO CLIMB A HILL!!!...

yep--a really neat one, and steep, though sadly, it was a paved one...

and...

well...

uh...


it was leading into a uh...






















golf course....

well, it was all i had.... :)

i was lucky to be there... really....


some friends from england, came to visit and we just happened to stay at a golf course, though non of us play golf... it was an off season, so they take folks in...

it was a really lovely, and very spendid part of the woods though... the trees were great with wild colors... and all kind of woodsy-stuff was around...


and... well, the golf course was around, too... sure couldnt miss it, and i am surly not knocking it... :)
it was just so strange to be in the woods-----but not really "in" them...


the hill was great to climb, even though it was a golf cart trail... but--
i just looked up the wonderful trees and pretended it was dirt beneath my feet... and:

the veiw of the trees, and the lay of the land, around the golf course, was
really lovely... it really was... i will post a pic, later, of the trees...

well, that's it for me, folks... climbing in to bed to sleep now, is what i will do:
if all the critters get out and make room for me... :O

happy climbing! while you can... as winter is soon upon us in many places...



edit: here is the picture... you can NOT see the steepness of the hill, though, from here... it drops sharply down...
and... it is JUST as steep once you go around, and come back up to the other side, way-far-left of this starting point...

crimson crysalis - first ones on the route. Up two pitches before the next party showed up. Topped out at noon. Ready now to go to BJ's for PIZZA. Waiting for friends who just topped out on Rainbow Wall 20 minutes ago.

I tried to climb this thing about 30 times today, but just could not quite get there. Flaring off fingers on a slighly overhanging wall with crappy footholds. Been working on getting this for many many days over several years and could never get off the ground. Today I came to within about 2 feet of the top but could not commit to the last move as there is a sloping rock shelf that is somewhat uneven to land on. i think I got it dialed for the next time though.

ThanksSide view of the crack from the side. It has few foot holds and is fairly steep for the area.

Looks cool Mike.
I just did 2 laps of the biggest pillar at Diablo RG. Plastic to v-4 weights, sauna, then tried not to eat all the trick or treat supplies.
