Bud is leading one for old time sake... he finally got to puttting in pro about 40 feet up after we nagged him about it...

10-year old Ryan completed his ascent of the 5.9 classic "Foolish Behavior." If you've ever wished your arms were a little longer when reaching for the jug to the left of the end of the crack on this route, imagine what it was like for him...

Drew (Climber_osu) is making easy work of Atomic Knee Drop on our spring break trip. It's just a 5.6, but its a really fun climb and great for beginning trad leaders, because its easy to protect.

Yah, its not like Yosemite, but its all the Okies have. Grant (Onbelay_osu) is taking every chance he can to get on the rocks including this 5.6 called Atomic Knee Drop. He's taking a bit of advice on his pro placements from Drew (Climber_osu).

Grant (Onbelay_osu) using his head on Atomic Knee Drop. This was my first time climbing in the Wichitas with Okies and they are a different breed of climber.

Grant's (Onbelay_osu) mouthful of nuts can't go undocumented. He would never do such a thing in front of the ladies though.

The last few moves before the roof crux. A large cam protects the move. Fun stuff! Photo of Alan Ellis by Eric Henderson. November 2003.

Playing around on Foolish behavior. One of the best climbs in the Wichitas. Nice arm/hand jam crack gives away to some delicate face moves protected by 3 bolts at the top...although not completely run out its 30' or so from the last bolt to the top.

This is me climbing on Atomic Knee Drop. This weekend was my introduction to climbing on granite and I have to say that I like it lots.

This is me rapping off the fixed bolts on Simply Red (5.8) in the Romper Room climbing area of Upper Mount Scott in the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge in southern Oklahoma.

I'm about halfway down from the Simply Red rappel bolts. The rap station is a little tricky to find, but the Romper Room area offers some of the best views to be had from Mt. Scott.

Finishing the final few feet of the Mild and Wild crack in the Romper Room area.

At this point I'm around halfway up to the belay station where the photographer, Clancy L., is located.

ClimbnCowboy having a great time on Atomic Knee Drop despite a very sore big toe.

Here is Jeff going at on Atomic Knee Drop. Here really liked this climb for the view.

Me climbing Atomic Knee drop on upper mount scott, fun route.

Trying to start the route from the ground. With a little more roof practice I could do it clean without using the boulder behind.

Feet slipped off trying to do the route from the ground.

Continuing up the route, this is the normal start location.

Once you are in this position, it is easy!

I used my shoulder to aid in balance to raise my feet past the buldge.
