This is Todd. He is climbing hard. I can't climb this hard, but he can.

Isaac just running laps on this "easy" problem at Ibex.
|
|
Okay, I lied. He didn't really destroy it, but it sure looked painful.
|
|
Yeah, he was giving a little clinic that day and did a few V7's and V8's and did this problem twice in a few minutes.

This is Gary. His rc.com name is socialclimber. He is rad and let me tag along on a sweet day of bouldering. He is doing a diagonal dyno on this problem. Right after he caught the pocket he swung into a horizontal position and promptly landed on his side, next to the crash pad. Good thing the landings are all grass. I didn't land on my side, but i did tear a huge hole in my finger on the pocket he is going for. This problem rules.

Seth finishing this v2 Gary killed first. Gary is cool. So is Seth. I wish I was in New Zealand again bouldering with them.
|
|
This is me taking the Big Swing. Special isn't it.

This is Brett trying his damndest to get over this nasty roof, while also scoping out a good place to put bolts. This thing could go around 5.12+.
|
|
Cool problem on the Thumb. This is one of the best boulders in the area, with at least 6 quality problems, and one heck of a view.
|
|
Nate working on the super thin and greasy crux of this awesome problem on the north side of the Thumb.

|
Seth smearin' n stemmin' like a son of a bitch to no avail on the V4 Black Cauldron. Burly problem.

This is a possible new route on a wall my friend and I are looking to start establishing routes within the next few weeks. This spot is totally secluded, untouched, and looks like it could have at least 40 new routes. I was literally blown away when I came around the corner and saw this wall.

Jessica is top roping the original route at little creek in Oak Creek Canyon. Two new bolted lines are here now, but the old TR route zig-zagged between them.

nate messing around at sunset on the rocky ridge boulders. they are sharp, but close to home

Jessica took this picture of me humping my way over the lip of Captain Choss (V3).

My wife Jessica getting ready to top out her first V2 at Ibex.

The start of the Lip Traverse (V3) on the Warm Up Boulder at the Red Monster area.

Phil heel hooking under the roof of Captain Choss at the Ibex boulders.
|
|
This is me topping out Captain Choss in the Choss Cave at the ibex boulders.
|
|
This is Phil on his first day of outdoor bouldering. This is a short v3 cave problem just to the northwest of the red monster. The wind was blowing so hard it would sometimes tear us off the problems, but it was a beautiful day of climbing nonetheless.

My wife Jessica bouldering in Central Park NY during a break between rainstorms. The boulders are really cool, but slick as all get out when your shoes are wet.
