sweet shots. I'm not so good about taking pictures, so I have nothing to show.

But while we're talking crack problems, anyone ever do fist full of walnuts at J-tree? An all time classic.

I, mememememe, yep, I named it "Fistfull of Walnuts"...
(obviously a play on Fistful of Dollars, with walnuts lending the connotation of gnarl)
Not that I did the FA tho.

'Was an early love affair with wide-ish hands and cruisy flairs.
I do find it nice!

Butterfly at Joshua Tree,
It really is a terrific boulder problem and then there is a bit of moderate soloing at the top...

That walnuts rig is a little awkward Tar, but it'll help warm you up for So High.

More good 'uns at JT: High Noon, Chube, Gunsmoke, Caveman, Hobbit Hole.

Fist Full of Walnuts is one of my favorites, especially if I feel like beating myself up.

Some new ones in the Northern Bourbons that quickly got pushed to the top of my favorites list:


Really nice patina on this one...

This boulder is just a few yards from the last one...
