This is a picture I took of Cannon Cliff on the way to Rumney....Turned out pretty damn good imo, considering it was taken at ~60 mph. ....course, it looks way better full size, heh.

This is Olivier in the first ascent of our 2 day trip to Rumney last weekend, in War and Peace. Very sweet 5.9+. Pumpy, too.

At the end of the last day of our trip, we found this unnamed boulder (least it ain't listed in Ward's guide book). I'd say it's about V0 or V0+, since I could've made it to the top if I had tried it on the first day, but I'm no bouldering expert. It's like 20 steps from the left Meadows crag, and we decided to fool around with what was left of my camera's battery...I wonder how long it takes before Steve sees this wonderful picture of him....Hah!

Sooo, to be fair to Steve, I'm also posting this nasty picture of me on that unnamed boulder at the meadows crag....

This is my project, my dream, my nightmare...It's a very sexy, pumpy 10d. The crux is on the upper part, and I'd say it's a lil height dependant (yeah, I'm saying that because I'm short). I hand dogged it on my first attempt a month ago, took me about an hour, but hey, I got to the top. I did a lot better last weekend, but I still need to work on it for the redpoint next weekend. I can't wait!!

This is me considering Yoda before gearing up....those cracks on the upper part terrified me! (I hate cracks with a passion)

I took this picture without even realising it actually looked like Vader's mask, until I saw it on my computer screen, hehe.

Me, in a pic taken by my lil brother Kevin, in Lies & propaganda, 5.9, at the last bolt, about to cross over to the right to clip the LO. Hands down the nicest 9 I tried yet.
