This is me near the top of Flight Simulator at the Grotto on Table Mountain. Credits go to my friend Pulkit who had actually never climbed or taken climbing photography before.

C'est Moi, enjoying the guano

I shot with a 10mm superwide angle to capture the atomosphere of the place. This crag has always been a favorite. photo Tom Slater slatervision.com

This was a nice, fun, easy lead. :) My first trip outdoors!!

Trying to stay cool in the grotto on a Fall day. This route is easier than it looks.

rain = bad

Dustin Park, Flight Simulator. The hold that you clip the anchors off of was soaking wet!

Tod Tomlinson jams his way up the fun .8 crack. Anywhere else this thing would be 3 stars, but this is the Grotto, so it's just average.

Pic of a friend climbing for the first time (also he is slightly afraid of heights) and me "kind of" belaying him. hee hee

Davidji in the rest stance on AC Devil Dog. This is on my short list of favorite sport climbs. The sun was just at the edge of the pillar, which made it hard to photograph. Photo by mungeclimber.

Pulling past the 12b crux of the short, bouldery route: Grotto Monkey at the Grotto, Sonora, CA.

Warming up on a short 10c clip up in the Grotto.

Collin working through Rawhide (.11a). Many call this route the best 5.11 finger crack west of Yosemite.

Pulling through the lower cave moves of this short .12a clipup.

Chris climbing out of the Grotto on the unique double arete of AC Devil Dog.

A small local crag outside of Sonora, CA in the foothills of the Sierra's. A nice cool place to climb if you like basalt columns. The photographer is my buddy Brian from school, and I'm the climber.

My first successful outdoor (non-buildering) climb in the US. A 5.8 crack at the grotto.

Pulling the second crux on AC Devil Dog after slap, slap, slapping up the bottom.
