Wow! Pretty much a history of the world, and I didn't have to put a nickel in, and a great deal of fun came out, of somewhere.

Thanks for including me Spider. Chances are, though, I was behind the camera.

Lol. Yes Spider. Quite amusing, especially given the photos origin...


Wayno- Ya buddy I hear ya! :) Especially because i'm spending so much time looking at photos from it! Lol

Mouse! Nice stuff as always! You captured me taking my only iphone picture on tuesday night. It was a pano so obviously you had lots of time.. Lol

Don- nice pics bud!! Sorry to hear you got rained out, but did you have to bring it home with ya? Lol just kidding! ;) let's get out soon!

These were all tuesday night as well. Pasta night! What a popular night too! There weren't any leftovers on pasta night!!

Grippa enjoying a beer on the rocks

Spider and Rodger enjoying the evening light.

Mouse digging into the pasta while Fritz and Heidi finish preparing the table.

Spider and Angela getting some while Rodger looks on with anticipation and Heidi enjoys a sip of her wine.

The chef eats. Mouse shows us his Tommy Caldwell impersonation... Wrong finger stupid!! Lol can you believe he cut off his finger just for that joke?? Lol
Spider seems to be in contemplation of the thread at hand.. Lol

Dinner selfie!! While maintaining a interesting enough conversation to leave Phylp with that semi perplexed look on her face.
Mouse approves, and Rodger and Spider are in the thick of it while the rest of camp loads up on some pasta.

Imstien checking out his photos while Heidi chats with someone.
The Pat and Jack and Paige show in the background is conversing with TWP and his lovely wife Judy.

Also in the background is a beautiful Idaho sunset brought to you by too many hours of photoshop stitching... Lol

Alright... More pics soon! Including the fabulous Twin Cracks I know Kev would like to see.

It was a late, tipsy night, followed by a late morning.

The sun had drained my energy the day previous, and it was tough to get going.

I went to the bathroom and snapped this shot of the view while waiting for the porta pottie
Note the fly in the center of the shot.. Lol

Greg and Kev were patient, and hiked up to my camp to get me.

We hiked around the south side of the Twins. Lots of nice boulders here...

Then down the road......

I love all the photos! More please!

We had Jim & Angela as houseguests last night on their way home from their WA. adventures.

It's a long time until next year, but Jim & I of course talked about next year at COR. We agreed it would be hard to beat this year's guest list.

Thank you all for being wonderful, interesting, & kindly folks.

Donini discovered another kindred spirit with Harley "the cat." He thinks he may have use for Harley's "death-laser" eyes.

For some unknown reason, I didn't do much photography this trip to CoR. Thankfully we have the Mouse from Merced there, faithfully recording the antics of Moosedrool and Big Mike. The pictures he's posted by themselves would have great merit, but his ever-so-salty comments add to the spice of viewing!

Wish I could have made the "get-together" but look forward to attending next year's - if there is one. I cruised through the city yesterday on my way home from a family vacation in Utah and shot the attached video. Never fails to amaze...

Thanks for all the compliments guys! It was a pleasure to have such fine subjects and scenery to work with! ;)

It's been very nice to see some pics of myself via mouse as well! Great shootin' Mouse!!

I forgot one .. Here's Angela, Jack, Saugy and Mary who's clearly over having her picture taken.... Lol :)


Back to our approach to Twin Cracks.

By normal climbing standards this fifteen minute approach is pretty moderate, but by cor standards it's a pretty good hoof. :)

What? We gotta walk to get to the crag? Waddya mean i need a bag for my stuff?? Lol

It was a beautiful jaunt.
Apparently the bottle feature on the right has been climbed but is reportedly not stable.

These two formations are just past the Twin Sisters.

Twin cracks is just to the left of the fenceline. Weatherwall is the next formation.

More pics soon!! ;)
