Nwo- as much as i like this climbing in February stuff... It's pretty surreal dude.

Nice pics guys! Kyle got me on MCR a long time ago. It was really cool. And really hard.

Isn't that the one they found the bleach on recently?

Kieran if you like chickenheads you gotta go to Shuteye buddy...

Why are aid climbers found between hydro lines?

How else would they get the electricity they need to make all those weird tools they use work?

Marc got the first one day solo ascent of Cowboys in a very quick time. He daisy soloed it.

I don't remember the name but this should identify it.

Marc deserves a huge amount of respect but.....daisy soloing some of those pitches (particularly the second) is totally nuts.

I know where that is, but probably only cause I yelled at you from the bottom. I'll let someone else have a guess.

Well, The Unscrubbed Country is just imagination. What tipped the balance toward Sports Illustrated was the fixed line.

Hahaha! Another great day at the bluffs. I was informed today that apparently mcr is easier at 11c than my over 40 project.

Looks like that route might be a little lonesome out there. Glad you gave it attention. Great to see some of the activity during this good weather. TFPU.

It's at burgers, don't know the name. Shorty on the left that just got recleaned & maybe bolts added replaced? Left of the gravy.


Edit- actually I take that back!! The trees too big, maybe burgers far right of those other little guys before Big Jims newish climbs. I really want it to be burgers, the path back there makes me think that. Doesn't matter anyways it only looks 6' taller than Big Mike.

Ok, so i got confused. I thought we were talking about Natural Carpet Ride 10c at Crystal Wall.

Eric and I had a fun day at burgers. We climbed 3 routes there i've never done. An old Jim Sinclair route Eric just cleaned on the far right of burgers, a nice little 5.7 which takes perfect gear from .5 to 2" has nice anchor.

Then we climbed this Tall Can Al number.

Bearbreeder on False Friends 5.7

After we climbed Frying Brownies 10a, and i got another lap in on Over Forty...

Pretty good considering i broke my back 730 days ago...
