Me attempting Pink Crack. Haven't gotten it but I will... oh yes I will :) Photo by Robb Kulin

This was a shot I took at a turnout while driving down the mountain from Black Mountain campground. No filter used.

These are actually my neighbors kids who we took climbing and myself. I got tired of carrying the little one around so we plopped him in the crash pad on our way to the next boulder. He loved it so much he didn't want to come out when it was time to climb.

Damon Corso took this shot of me pushing through an unknow V5 next to Cracker boy on the lookout towern area of Black Mountain.

Sticking the hold. Unknown boulderer (can't remember your name) nearly sticking the crux of Flight of the Courier at Black Mountain. He later sent the problem.

I don't remember the climber's name, but this was his first succesful attempt at this problem at Black Mountain.

Resting, focusing, and thinking through the moves.

Steph cranking hard on the small left-hand crimp as she gets ready to make the long move to the lip.

Obi reaches for the crimp in the Center Visor problem at Black Mountain. A V6 move to the lip leads to a tough mantel.

This photo is from Damon Corso. This is Chris Linder trying to stick the lip of this insane dyno called " Belly Flop" You can see if you miss it whats going to happen.

This is my friend Mike, working an un-named v6 at boulder basin campground area.

This is John, a guy I met while climbing at Black Mt., working an un-named v6 with a nice cristal for a thumb cath. The sequence to the problem is to hit the thumb catch/pinch and then right heal hook and lock for a long move to a nice crimp.

As I sat chilling by the fire, I caught this glimpse of the impending night sky. Taken: 7/9/05.
