my friend Mellissa established her first first ascent today. Mel's Diner 5.9 at the 2nd Quarry...palming a steep arête with feet on small crystals, 6 bolts. It was her third lead ever! She's badass just ask her.

cool, yeah, afternoons out there are really nice when it's cool temps.
does it have a name yet? I can add it to the route list, or if you register, you can post it up. I think I fixed the registration process so it's easy to do again (but I don't get spambotted in the process)...

I am surprised to see this topic resurface. The joy in my friends face and late fall in the Sierras are timeless memories. (power/rap)

We climbed Yosemite yesterday in T-shirts. I interacted with only two other people all day, the ranger at the gate and the ranger at the gate. The Widows Tears appeared to be "in". Lis has pics.

Bitter-sweet when a place gets under your skin. The swifts and ravens seem to hang in that sky forever.

I have not seen this thread yet. Fun watching your adventures.
Mel's Diner is definitely 5.10. She has one FA and is already a sandbagger!

My buddy Shane made his first lead yesterday, onsight. The forest was cool and glorious. Sugar-pine cones dripping sap, fall squirrels scurrying, unclimbed lines to hand, new crags gleaming across the river. Ahh tis love.

Thanks for posting those Shane. The peeps like the pics. Perhaps other folks would like to show some of their good times? Those last were from Potter's Rock. Lovely light filters through the oaks high above the Middle Fork of the Stan.

Hint for rotating pics from an iPhone... If it looks right on iPhone but uploads as a rotated picture, try this: edit the pic on iPhone, rotate 90 degrees, save. Edit again, rotate 270 degrees (i.e. 3 button presses), save. Now what you see on iPhone matches what uploads to Supertopo.
