me on A.H.R. during a cool winter day. good crew and session

These two holds mark the crux of Tendon Sandwich. Don't slide, now lift your foot up and turn into power plant.

Laura Hamm dialing in SmartTom on a beautiful Boone afternoon.

This is just a shot of me on some easy boulder traverse, with the camera set on 15sec shutter.

Sam sticking to the rock on the initial dyno. The 20 foot plus top out makes this trip heady. I really like the different perspective.

Sammmy is looking pumped and scared, even though every hold is a JUG.

Sam is looking strong and not to worry, because Rosco has his spot.

Eric Crews is pulling down hard on the Horn. This classic is tall and scary.

Pablo is back, stronger than ever. Here he is pulling like superman.

Alicia doing the hard first move of The One on the left side of the 45 degree boulder. Cool crimps lead to a very awkward slopey top out. Classic NC.

Me on the far right of Mushroom. Don't know the rating but it's a decent problem with sloping dishes and small crimps.

...this is the proflie at the Pump Wall Blowing Rock, NC. I know it's not the blowing Rock...but kinda looks like the dude is blowin..the profile is on the left end arete of the pump wall

Sammy warming up on the Mushroom Boulder at Blowing Rock, NC. Don't shred it up to soon Sammy...Hounds Ears is Next

..deft footwork and stellar technique make a nice problem look easy for Alex.

Ben Goodpasture on Smart Tom. Photo by Sam F. at Blowing Rock Boulders 10/6/04. Smart Tom is a crimpy (sharp) traverse that moves to a more vertical climbing problem. The holds get better as you go up. The crux is getting to and from the decent yet sharp incut sidepull. This problem is probably the first one to dry out after the rain and is usually a sunny spot.

The day before Hounds Ear Eleven the DC crew went to Blowing Rock, NC for some fun. If you're ever in Boone, NC check Blowing Rock Boulders.

This is me on the top out move of the "Armpit" (correct me if the name is wrong). One of my favorite problems at the Blowing Rock Boulders.

This is me on the top out move of this problem at the rest area near Blowing Rock. A fun problem.

This is me on Madox boulder (i think)....its just down from the 5.10 wall at the Blowing Rock Boulders. I was told this particular problem was called "Armpit"

This is me on the first move of the "Armpit" (correct me if the name is wrong).

This is me on the last move of the "Armpit" (correct me if the name is wrong) before the top out.

This is me on the last move before the top out of this problem at the rest area near Blowing Rock. A fun problem.

this is directly to the left of harvister... really fun and really tough.
