Climbers on a ridge seen from the Aguille du Midi.

Setting up to climb near one of the belvederes.

A nice route for Erin to do her first trad lead on at Pilot Mtn, NC.

This is my friend Ron Funderburke leading at Doughton on my first time ice climbing.

My girlfriend Erin ice climbing at Doughton Park in North Carolina.

This is my girlfriend Erin on "Second Coming" 5.7 at Looking Glass, NC.

This is my buddy Ron on "Right Up" at Looking Glass. The first piece that he could place on this climb was a little #0 TCU.

Here's a view north from Pilot Mtn. Pilot Mtn is the prominent feature on the right. Then from left to right is Sauratown, Moore's Wall, and Cooke's Wall.

This is a shot coming out of Pisgah National Forest in NC.

This is a shot of the northern part of Linville Gorge. Little Table Rock is the small outcrop on the right. Our campsite was at the top of that.

This is a panoramic shot of Pilot Mountain's Knob. You can also see Sauratown and Moore's Wall in the background. This was taken with just a cheap disposable Fuji camera that had a panoramic selection on it.

This is at the by the creek at the little campground across the street from Rumney looking up toward the Main Wall. Go ahead and flame on because of the dirty scanner quality (I know you professionals know how to clean it up in PhotShop...I don't and don't care) Maybe someday when I have time I will rescan it. I also took this picture with a 4dollar disposable camera and scanned it for free at a public library. The real picture looks superb.

After a day of climbing at Ship Rock we return to a friend of mine's apartment up in Boone and find ourselves locked out. But it just so happens that his back sliding door is open...but it he is on the 2nd Floor. No problem, I quickly scaled the back porch to get in so we could shower up and hit the bars. Notice I lost my left flip-flop...I almost didn't make it.

We took this shot as we were driving through the Flume Gorge on the way to Rumney. This place looks so impressive. This was taken kind of early in the moring late in July with a cheap disposable camera. Turned out pretty dang good I think.

This is me seconding up the beautiful roof on "Lost in Space." My partner Ron is chilling on the ledge above after a beautiful flash of the route. And this picture is taken with a digital zoom on a camera from the ground by my roommate Seth.

Seth getting awfully close to the rock while seconding on the first pitch of Lost in Space. This was also his first attempt on multipitching...not a bad intro ehh?

Hope this isn't 'too' offensive. But this is a funny shot of my partner and I after the second pitch on "Lost in Space." My friend took it with a digital camera standing on the ground about 180ft below.
