Actually, that's "The Dragon", 5.10d over the summit of Woodson, by the Ogre. That photo isn't mine, it appeared last year or so ago.
Here's another classic of Bob Van Belle soloing it, b.i.t.d.,...

Kinda nice to know the current status on Top Secret File.
Personally, I have little interest in the problem. It just seems that I never see any chalk on it. Of course, even though it's not all that rare that I go up there I'm not really a local so there may be times when I just don't see it.
Cool.

If you're in the SD area sometime Bluey, hit me up and we can go check Woodson as well as some of the other San Diego gems. I live right the the base of a nice rock face that appears to have much potential as well.

I'll prolly be down there in April, Dirt. My wife and son are visiting a friend in L.A. and maybe her bro on Coronado. She said I didn't need to tag along but I pointed out that there's climbing in them there hills, "I'll go".
I will contact you when have I have more details. I know nothing of So Cal climbing outside of Josh.

Yeah, that shindig last year turned out to be a flop, so, I wouldn't encourage anyone to run with another one any time soon.
On a more successful note, although a chilly, foggy day up at Woodson this afternoon, Pat Goodman and Jessa Goedell returned with "the Verm" in tow, to make another assault on the mountain. Goodman, on his first visit to Mother Superior, repeated it "three times" to include both exits at the "Y." Jessa Goedell fired Driving South earlier in the day. I can't recall ever hearing of another female on/successful at D.S., anyone? "This place is amazing!" Goodman exclaimed. They are off to J-Tree tomorrow.

last year as in 2010, not 09. I think it was 09.
Mike. when was that?
That was hella fun. Bvb was a great tour guide. Got to meet Gordo and confirm some stories. Met Offwhite, Phantom X, Klimmer, watched guys like Levy, Grug, Scuffy float some wide, met and watched a bunch of others. Got on some problems I hadn't done before too.
good times are where you make them.

I thank God for it's success Jaybro. I had a blast, really, it was a "kick in the pants" serving others. Everyone else really "made it happen" as I was told they would by Ron Gomez. It was my first time being involved like this in my nearly thirty years of climbing and I don't regret it a bit. Overall, it was met with great participation and enthusiasm. Tom and Elke Lindner summed it up the best by saying to me, "Thanks for the trip down Memory Lane." By passing out the Word, and hearing Tom and Elke, my mission was accomplished.

Is Jessa Goedell related to Dave Goeddel? Spelling's different, but wondered if it was a typo, or...?
