AHA! an unexplored quadrant of the mussy nebula has been discovered...but before we attempt to inhabit this strange, alien world, we must conduct atmospheric and life-support conditions for what appears to be a CLASS-M planet we can use as our base...

Did you do the "A Dogs Roof"? It's really hard on the tendons in the fingers. I watched Chris Bellizy do it barefooted. He got his toes to jam also, which helped I believe a lot more than with shoes on.

Edit: It was quiet for so long then OffWhite posts up just before I do while I'm in the composition room. What are the chances????
OW-- So said crag is just a few minutes from your front door? How many routes on said crag, and about how large is the crag? Looks nice.

Roy, we’re in SoCal at the moment. I consider CZ to be my home now, liked living there very much :-)
The boulders are off Hwy. 395 near Ridgecrest, am driving up there a lot to do new problems. There are literally thousands of boulders at this place. When I get my scanner hooked up I’ll post some shots of Mike, Mari, Bachar and Carpenter (Dave) bouldering near there, like 22 years ago.
Speaking of Dave, I have looked through all the threads of nick names, did not see his, Bearahmiah or some other spelling?

OK, Nebulies. How well do you know Woodson? Can you peg this climb from only a few dark clues? Can you pick out the climb back-lit to the left of Tim Umstead rapping after sending said climb barefoot. Hints: It is slightly overhung. Does that rock and tree in the background look familiar?
Photo by GHS/Realm of Light, 1978?
Loomis--
I think I know the area you are speaking of. You can see the boulders from 395 as you cruz by and there are many mines in the area. By the way, many (I mean MANY) good Rock & Mineral collecting locations nearby also :-))

hmmmm. woodson pic upstream -- cueing off the rock in the background, it's either the test tube or that ricky accommazzo 5.11c face route, just down hill from big grunt, the name escapes me at the moment....it looks an awful lot like the summit, with those big trees. test tube?
nah, i think it's that accomazzo thing just down from big grunt -- barn-door starter move off a cheatstone to nail a big jug, then power laybacks of tiny edges to a dicey dimes topout: "Go With The Flow."

Your guess on the mantle yielded the wrong place/state.
Hint: you recently posted a photo of you on the approach/descent? from a climb that would take you right by this problem.

Very nice shots. Looks like a quality crag. Does it ever freeze enough to climb any ice on said crag in the winter?

Klimmer, it's only been climably frozen once in twenty some years. Problem is when it gets that cold in the lowlands it's usually clear, and it's a south facing black cliff. Gotta be teens and lower but cloudy, rare conditions in SW Washington.

Can you pick out the climb back-lit to the left of Tim Umstead
well, that statement implies there is a climb visible to the left of the climber, right?
ok then, let's say he's rapping off the boulder with the crucible and the test tube. that would match up with the boulder and the big tree in the background. but why is he rapping off? and what is this "back-lit" thing you are talking about?

Your bouldering pic must be Petit Grepon in RMNP then?
Maybe the Saber is what we see, which is just right of PG.
At any rate, per Prague, no pic here, but years ago in an early issue of "Wired " magazine, there was a really cool piece of street art shown. It was a bronze-like unicycler, positioned on a high wire which was stetched between buildings and across a street. Must be a pretty cool city...

Ding, ding, ding. Yes it is Crucible to the right of Test-tube, and it's just barely out of sight (maybe?) .
Why did he rap?, because we where practicing our skills!! Damn those Premium Miniatures (TM by bvb), which by the way are awesome. We were practicing all our skills for the really big stones to come.
Back-lit only referred to the light quality in the image.
OK, so it was a little challenging but you were so hot, and then you went so cold. Weird sheeite happens in the Neb.
Edit: bvb-- you're first intuition was very good. Should have stuck with it ;-))
OK, now I can only assume the hardest to determine dark & super vague images are going to get thrown out from now on. What have I started? I'm sooooo ashamed.

Blast-off is April 19-24. We expect a journey of around 3,876 years to reach a destination so removed from the Mussy Nebula. We're hoping there will be no problems with the suspended animation. Things got a little stinky last trip.
Quite a few of those old Leepers set by the Ancient Ones have been replaced, like here on The Deceiver Wall:

bvb-- Oooohhh! oohh! I think I know where this is. Isn't this climb near the old dirt road scar cleared eon's ago just below Baby Robbins to the south. I used to go this way all the time to Baby Robbins and Jaws. Name of climb, who know's???
By the way, you captured Sasquatch on film just above OW's head in that ancient photo.
HV-- Please tell me this isn't true concerning Santee Boulders. I was woking with Dr. Chuck Berry (UCSD), of Sierra Club RCS fame, in PB, in the mid '90s concerning saving Santee Boulders from the developers. The land owners are a consortium called "East Elliot Planning Community" named after the old Army training base that used to be there in WW2. One of the owners is none other than Dr. Coad and another guy that owns an exterminating company I think in La Mesa. Randy Vogel got involved then and wrote a letter to the land owners concerning liablity laws to calm their fears. Went to several of those planning meetings at Rick Engineering. They definately know about the climbing on Santee Boulders. Sounds like I need to get back involved and find out what's up. I haven't been. Is the Access Fund involved? We need to get on this. Please let me know what you heard. Santee boulders is a real treasure, and now I even know more of it's history thanks to all this time we've been blowing at SuperTaco. Like the fact that some of the first bouldering contests ever where held here, and just about all of the Stonemasters made it down to climb at Santee Boulders at some time or other. And all the history and beta that bvb, DW, Greg C. and WL have on the place.
I used to have nightmares about losing Santee Boulders back then when I was involved working with Chuck (Charles) to save it and going to those meetings. Pretty stressful. At that time they were planning on developing around it and setting it off as open space. What has changed? I need to know. Damn it. My previous job before becoming a HS science teacher was working in environmental consulting, and I had my ear to the ground real well at the time.

Klimmer, for that ancient rare pic of BVB in the alpine, I'm behind the camera, not in the picture. That's Wayne Kamera, actually the weekend we met him. Wayne's put in his time all over the west, I shouldn't be surprised if some of you cyber figments have met him sometime or other.
Horrible about Santee if that's a done deal, I love that place.

After you chuck the scanner out the window from frustration, and with your drink in hand to calm the nerves think "Ohm pade mayde ohm" or something to that effect.

PS--
Just got an email from a friend concerning Santee Boulders. Access Fund is on the job. A friend of mine is collecting Santee History for the fight. I sent him links to SuperTaco and everyone whom he should get in touch with: bvb, Doug White, Greg Cameron, John Vawter, Werner Landry, and said Stonemasters who spent time at Santee. When was the earliest documented climbing at Santee Boulders? Was there any Santee guide prior to Doug's "Crags and Boulders of San Diego County"? What were the actual dates for all Santee Bouldering contests? Important info. to document for saving Santee Boulders. Please help. I know you all care about one of our favorite bouldering areas. We are not going down without a fight.
Goodnight from Nebu-land. Commencing suspended animation in 3, 2, 1 . . . zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
My damn scanner! I guess fluorescent bulb on fluorecent bulb doesn't work too well . I hate it when I get lines all over my perfect positives. Gonna have to go check-out a real good scanner for purchase. Any advice would be appreciated. Needs to be able to do 35mm slides to at least 5" x 7" positives. Thanks.

Yep, you got it, right below the Pingora and Wolfs Head.
Almost died on sight soloing the Wolfs Head, got way off route and wound up on this 10b finger crack with wet moss oozing from it. Still cringe thinking about, 23 years later!

Hurray!
bring em on BVB. The pics are cool. I'm a little rusty b/c I've been out of action for 8 months getting my flimsy knee ligaments fixed, have to knock a little booze and cobwebs outta my head to play.
I love woodson. My favorite time out there is in the summer, early evening just before dark, when the air is still, the light is still in the sky, and the bats are starting to come out of the cracks.
Seen some cool critters out there too- ringtail cats, a couple of grey foxes, and brown trantulas
