Was that Amazon box delivered by drone?

Missed you guys! (The reality is I beat the sh#t out of Moose when he nixed the route I wanted to take).

Mike-

I still have that one on my bucket list, too. You guys looked great on the route. It takes quite a bit of time to upload the movies that I took, and still have about 3 minutes of footage remaining to upload. Later tonight!

Mike and Travis-

Here's the final segment # 4 of the climbing video I was making. It take too long to load the up to YouTube, but it seems worthwhile to do so...

Hmm. Seems I left a letter in the code out--fixed now. Enjoy

Here's a few more camp photos.

We went to do Columbia Crack on Elephant Rock. Donini kept calling it Cocaine Crack for some reason. It went on and on. Cocaine Crack... Crack Cocaine... thus the powdered nose shot:

I'm hopeful Fritz and Heidi will again step up to the plate and sponsor a 2016 City of Rocks get-together! If it does happen, let me be the first to acknowledge my planned attendance!

Since, my hard work from this morning, got buried by a bunch of savages... I felt i should pull a thisjustin special.....

Awesome video Rodger! Thanks for that.

Hahahaha Spider! The one shot i wished i'd taken.. Thank you!

Ok Rodger i've been working on getting these done since yesterday.

After getting spanked at practice rock the day before... I talked Travis into hitting up Decadent Wall the next morning.

This was what i saw when i unzipped the tent.

These Cottontail Bunnies were common sights at camp.

Travis low on Twilight

Travis getting blinded on Twilight 5.6

Yes. All humans have ruined a shot with their thumb..

Vegas Climber goofing around up top when I requested he throw a couple pieces in to bridge the gap.


Toss me a hip belay to get me across the gap?

Bath anyone? ;)

Here are a few pics from the City. This little dude was quite curious. We put out a little capful of the spring water from the Breadloaves. In a few minutes he was chugging down and then he rolled in the dirt and hopped up on this big flat rock in our campsite and did some poses for us. He even waited while Masha fetched the camera.

Hahaha Rodger! Patience my friend.

After lunch and a town siesta, Travis wanted to get up Bath Rock and I told him i would be happy to hold his rope.

The belay and climbing were conveniently in the shade, which was nice since it was already 87f or so in the shade... Lol

Travis heading up tree start.

Have you got a piece in yet??

Ignore the extra arms and legs.

Travis wanted to rap off this thing but I wasn't feeling too confident about that...


Each formation you summit offers a unique view in the city.

Coulda fried an egg on this thing, my shadow is getting burned into bath rock.
