Very fun problem that required imagination to send. Seemed like there were 20 chalked up holds and only 4 or 5 you actually used.

Doing a sweet traverse near Swift River Picnic area. Starts down low to the right and traverses along seam and around the corner where the burn really starts to kick in.

Stickin' the big fun move on The Fin near Leavenworth, WA.

A beautiful day for bouldering near Leavenworth, WA.

Mitch and Mike Hyena Hansen prepare to climb the Pearly Gates - which is the ramp on the midleft section of the wall behind them.

Cliff and I @ Vantage. Cliff loves Kurt Russel more than a friend.

Sweet Traverse @ Pioneer Park in St. George, UT. So many options.

Cliff getting inverted while we play around at Pioneer Park in St. George, UT.

This is a sweet boulder we found along the river in the San Rafael Swell. Has an amazing highball, slightly slabby, face. Amazing.

Climbing unknown boulder in San Rafael Swell. Most the boulders seemed rotten but we were able to make a few problems.

About to launch for a small right hand crimper on an unknown boulder in the San Rafael Swell.

Mitch leading a climb we found on the rightside of the road on the way to Gemini Bridges or the Crackhouse.

Mitch on summit of Petard tower, valley of the gods. I think you can actually see the end of the world.

Shot of me just after mantling onto the beautiful summit of Petard Tower, Valley of the Gods.

I jumped out, and now had to jump back from the small island in the sky. Notice my aggressive posture, hunched over and arms crossed. I look like a real go getter, one that just realized he is wearing flip-flops. It actually looks like I am droppin the kids off at the pool . . . if you catch my drift. You can check out my photos for an action shot of the jump back. . . it shows the height of the fall better.

Trying different variations of footwork on Big Boy.

Climbing really fun E.B.P. in Little Cottonwood Canyon.

Cliff climbing the squamish classic Superfly.

I could stare at this photo of ranch-land all day.

Exploring new boulders . . . wondering what lies next.

Playing Sting Pong w/ friends. If you score a point the opponent has to lift his shirt up, above nipples, and cover face w/ paddle. The person who scores then gets to hit the ball as hard as possible at the loser. I lost that point and just got hit. . . leaves sweet welts to show friends later.

Our beautiful camp at dusk. Amazing place.

Mitch pulls through a fun easy roof on Wall Street.

Mitch warms up by bouldering a sweet flake near the fun route 30 Seconds Over Potash.

View of Bride Canyon near Gemini Bridges. The Bride is the rightmost tower, you can see she is holding her bouqet, with a cool line to a small, airy summit.

View of our camp in Bride Canyon near Gemini Bridges. We tried to climb a dirty, nasty chimney seen in the middle of the tower but had to retreat 30 feet from summit. . . next time.

Getting ready to bump right hand to the sloper on Nazi Traverse. Problem uses holes drilled by road crew.

Beautiful J-tree, pic taken spring break 2003.

Beautiful Joe's Valley boulder. No better way to spend a birthday.

Scott on the first move of Big Boy, Joe's Valley.

Scott trying to get through Big Boy at Joe's Valley, UT.

Mitch on upper section of Flakes of Wrath.

Eyeing the finish by way of dyno . . . and thats as far as I got. The finish is up right and out of the camera shot.

Climbing the rad line of circus trick. I thought there would be more to grab w/ the left hand on that one.

Rappin off of Mexican Hat near Valley of the Gods.

Mitch and I on the summit of Mexican Hat easily forgetting the very small base on which it sits.

Fun, easy aid climb to cool summit. . . careful not to get to close to the edge.

Mitch and I have a deal that the person seconding can't top out easily, he has to find a difficult mantle to summit.

The LightBulb 5.9+ A0, fun climb to a very small summit.

Mitch and Scott on approach trail to Fishcer Chimney route on Mt. Shuksan, Washington.

Bobby pullin through difficult mantle at Larrabee State Park.

Scott climbing an unknown (to us) problem at city of Squamton.

Cliff doing low traverse at Clayton Beach. That isn't the sit start, it is just how low you have to get to pull through. Starts far right and follows undercling, then really low through middle and up left.

Mitch bouldering the amazing roof crack at the Crack House.

Art eyeying to stick a dyno at Sad Boulders

Scott topping out on Solarium @ the Happy Boulders.

It isn't often we get to relax during a day of bouldering inside one of the boulders.

Scouting Utah scabland for boulders is an endless job.

Scott messing around on pistol like feature.
