My partner is on the rock! It was a beautiful day. I'm not sure which route this is called but wanted to share with you guys.

Cool problem somewhere in the main area at Horse Flats. Big open hand crimps.

not sure of the route name but this is the first obvious overhang when walking into the main area. easy bottom section with slopey topout.

this is me making the semi long approach into horse flats. semi long because its not the season for that area and the gates were closed making it a long hike on paved road. it was pretty darn cold that day.

I have no clue where this is but it was on the way back towards I-5. This problem looked great but the recent rain deterred us from getting on it.

Here's Damo "the photog" batteling past the uber high-step on the Arabian Shield.

The Great Curve (V5) is one of the classic boulder problems at Horse Flats in southern California. Usually started with at jump, Chris attempts the more difficult direct start. Photo by Todd Battey

The route is Orange Flambe and I think it's up around V7 or V8. Here we see Isaac Palatt working hard on the start. I'd talk about the crux but I can't even begin to climb something this hard...yet. The photographer is Ryan Wanger.

This route is a fun V0 in the main area of Horse Flats right off of the trail. A high problem but does not compare to some of the other ones in the area. Isaac took this picture from the B1 traverse boulder. You can check out Spanked Industries pimp purple pad.

High Chaparral can be a bit of a bushwhack to get to, but it's well worth the effort. It's a thin, extra-crimpy face climb on a beautiful boulder across the wash from the main area. The boulder can be seen from several points along the main trail: it sits by itself in the chaparral, and its prominent orange face is split by an obvious horizontal crack. The problem shown here is V5; Sherman added a V7 variation, and there are some other problems as well.

Todd Battey boulders up the Teflon Arete, a short bolted route in the Teflon President area. There are two starts to the route, one on either side of the arete.

Barndoor Arete is everything its name implies, and is one of the best 5.11 problems at Horse Flats. It's at the uphill end of the main area, just past Glitter Gulch (aka Zack's Roof).

There are probably pictures of this route already. I don't know the name. You can start off the deck or from a sit start under an overhang. THe route can be followed to the left or go up the face.

Chris Leger on "Titanium Man Traverse" (V5?), a new problem at Horse Flats just past the Pie Slice and across the trail. The problem starts as a lip traverse, drops down onto crimpers with a wild foot swing, goes through a campus move, and finishes out on slopers.

I know it is just a 5.8, but it is still fun, just look at my face, lol

Someone told me bin laden was inside this rock so I tried to peel it open... oops, made this big crack instead.

One of my favorites here at the flats. great rock, cool movement, and a little bit of hight.

This is a Old Photo taken of me in the mid 80's... with socks on!!

Doesn't look that high, but it's a weird landing.
