This is me about to finish the first crack section of Old Town. Once I got to the ledge, I felt a whole lot better. Then I looked up and saw there was more crack to go. What an awesome climb!

I meant my other rack, you pervert! Another pic of Old Town.

You arrive late at night. You've never climbed here before. You set up camp, and the excitement of what the next day has in store keeps you up late in anticipation! Here we see Ratherbe studying up for the next day's adventure.

Laybacks, Jams, and delicate stems. If this pitch were longer, it would be fantastic! Here we see Allison finishing the pitch with flair.

Nearly up to the belay, just a couple of moves left for Allison on this fine short pitch: Country Corner.

Wonder Woman (Tiffany) starting up a lead of the stellar "Old Town", at Precipice.

Blue Eyed Climber (Josh) follows Tiffany's lead up this three star climb in a five star setting! Old Town, Precipice Cliffs, Acadia NP.

RatherBe (Jen) about to start up the long sustained pitch that is Chitlins Corner. Fun stuff! You can see there's no Place she'd rather be.

Perfect rock, perfect gear, gorgeous setting, and a steep face leading to a nice 9+/10- roof. What more could you ask for than a Green Mountain Breakdown. Climber unknown.

The light spray cools you, and you can hear and feel the waves crashing from somewhere close by. But all you see is the rock, your friends, and the problem in front of you. Magical. Here DByte works out the opening moves to a big dyno.

The "do not throw rocks" sign at the top of the South Bubble in Acadia NP. In case you choose not to heed the sign, the park rangers have left a nice pile of head-turners at the sign's base.

This is one of my first-ever climbing vacation in Acadia National Park.

This shot was taken from near Monument Cove--gives you an idea of the scenery at Acadia National Park

This is 11-year-old Breanna top-roping The Slab at Bubble Rock, Maine. This little girl is quite a climber.

This was august of 2005. We had perfect 75-degree weather every day and did nothing but hike, paddle, and climb (climb mostly). We finished the trip with the Cathedral route to the summit of Katahdin. In the background is Monument Cove and the road to Thunderhole.

Some friends, my girlfriend, and myself after climbing the wall in the background. It was funny watching people stop along the road we are standing on to watch us climb.

I was belaying russell as we was sending a route at otter cliffs. I lowered him back down after he lead the climb to try to remove a stubborn cam.

Just a picture I took while in Acadia. I was there with my brother on a summer trip. We were really there because we were going to go Backpacking in the white mountains later, but I climbed around on the cliffs a little. I got to meet a some of the guides who worked for the local guiding company. The guides were awesome people. It seemed like they were the only nice people in Maine. It would be a nice place to come to if there were not so many unhappy people.

Enjoying the seaside scenery

My friend Ray climbing this summer in Otter Cliffs as Rahmin(sp?) belays. I was taking the picture leaning near the edge. You couldn't picture better weather for this area.

posing at the top of otter cliffs. The best climbing environment, aesthetically, that I've ever been in.

Base jumping completely sucks without a parachute.

Base jumping completely sucks without a parachute.

I lugged my mountain bike all the way out to Maine and was going to be damned if I didn't use it come rain or shine. It was fogging and misty the whole way up but the sun did peek out a few times. Coasting down the mountain was a blast.

This is a shot of me climbing one of the easier routes at Otter Cliffs, Acadia National Park. Yes, I am a NOOB but learning as I go. Acadia has quite a few easy routes so it was perfect for a top-roper like me. Next year I hope to try a little trad!
