blob rock massif

Me + Dominator (5.10a/b) = onsite. Photo by wanderinfree or nthusiastj? Im not really sure. Its bolted, but you could probably lead it on gear, you gotta love Boulder canyon!

First lead in Colorado. Got off the plane and went right to the rock.

Best route we climbed all day...despite the fact that I whined the ENTIRE way up. Photo credit: nthusiastj

its the well known "hey...we finally arrived at our destination and climbed something" over-under

Best Route at Castle Rock, two hard moves at the bottom, an easy middle (if you do it in one pitch), and a hard top section right before the anchors.

Setting up for the crux on Rush Hour (.12a) on the succesful 2nd attempt with some noob's rope swinging in just at the right moment. Climber: Jan Shooter: Craig

Lil'-Willy follows her brother up the Cussin' Crack, her first trad climb.

I don't know what this climb is named, but it was a sweet finger crack somewhere on the right side of the Rivierra at Boulder Canyon. My estimate would be 5.9 for the rating.

A butt shot of me on Young and the Rackless. I added this to add clarity to what P1 looks like for those of you trying to locate the climb.

This is not climbing related, but I think it's pretty cool. I just got my car all set up to run on waste vegetable oil (WVO) from two of the Thai restaurants here in Boulder. If you smell egg rolls as a little red beetle rockets past you on the way to the crag, that's me.

Liebacking up Curving Crack just before getting spit out of the crack. This thing kicked my a$$

Tried out my new rope for the first time on The East Slab in Boulder Canyon. As my friend, the waiter would say, "Excellent Choice!"

Here I am soloing up some easy route at Nip and Tuck. The look on nextascent's face when I popped up over the top was priceless. I love those moments where you're feeling it and you just do it! Photo by nextascent.

Getting ready to rap down to begin climbing Twofers Gully. Climbed with Nextascent that day. She was wearing an o-so-fashionable cast on her hand. Residue from a skiing accident and was still able to climb incredibly well.

It might be warm and sunny down there, but up here it's cold enough to dig out the trusty dacksteins.

This is Sportz Quartz, a nice little route in Boulder Canyon.

This is cosmosis on Bell Buttress in Boulder Canyon, Co. A beautiful overhanging layback/jam crack dihedral. 5.9

this is a fun little roof but it was done while it was 32 outside so it gave the digits a little sting.

On an unknown peak at sunset, getting in a little yoga. I am the next Prana superstar!

You know, people should really be glad denistry has evolved to more than just a quick yank and a mouthful of blood....thank god for novacaine and high speed drills...FWIW, i took this picture, its a series i did that day on a last second whim....Hes the best dentist ive ever been to, hence my nonchalant ability to shoot at will....
