A double ascent of the Mother Crack and Father/Brother Crack (left to right).

Awesome climbing in Jogasaki, Japan right on the ocean. Close enough that you can feel the spray hit you on windier days as you climb.

Shin Fukuhara on the short climb up as we head out from a wonderful day of climbing Super Rain.

A field of dreams awaits. One of many boulders in the mountain meadows surrounding Reno. I'm not going to spread the location, as it is in a very pristine meadow in the high country.

Yes, I know... "You could damage the tree!!!" I didn't want to carry it, so I creatively placed it for my second to clean... It was incredibly secure.

For $25 at the Army/Navy surplus store you can have the perfect bag to travel with your rack. Meets airline carry-on size requirements, and neatly keeps everything in place...

Overview of the three climbs noted in the title. You can see a rope coming down; White Streak is just left of it.
