The Larry, is that the scene I've been seeing in TV adds, where later she summits Ancient Art? I like the ad though I can't recall what it's selling. You got the back-story?

Yeah this is a still shot that I took while filming the city bank commercial.

This was out at Dead Horse Point but its suppose to be Ancient Art.

The climber is Katie Brown with Alex Honnold belaying.

Steph Davis did the rigging for this shot. When she rapped down to set up the ropes she found a bunch of bolted on holds that we were told were put there for the Mission Impossible movie.

Thank Micheal. I met her on her first trip to the valley. She's a cool chick.

Dayum, I wish I was like that...

Haven't touched anything hard and rock-like in what feels like forever...but has really been about 3 months...or 6? It's long enough I feel like I'm not a rock climber anymore. Hell, I think I might have my rock-climbing hymen back....HA!

No rock for me, but it sure is nice looking at all the pretty cuties!

Heh, they are all at the GYM!!!

I think the plastic makes them feel better, and the chalk doesn't stick to their make up the way dirt does... ;) hahaha

but seriously...walk into a gym and take your pick!

I've done many excellent trad pitches with an ex-cheerleader.
Among the best long free routes of my career actually, the woman flat out rocks: but there was hell to pay if she lost an ear ring! Ha!

My wife is a machine in the water... at the Malibu tri this fall after doing the swim leg for her team. She really surprised her boss when she beat him in a practice swim (he does full Iron Man's). Helps if you swam for Cal back in college! Off the couch she still crushes.


True story: while I grew up on the waters of Cape Cod as a kid, no one was much into anything other than survival swimming in my family. When I met my wife, that all changed. She had me doing all kinds of drills in the pool. I'm 500% better now. Not bad for someone who used to sink in water! They called me "lead boy" back in the day!
