A ledge barely big enough for lunch

Average Rating = 3.57/5 A ledge barely big enough for lunch

This was my first trip to Seneca Rocks, WV. Oct.'95. The picture was taken just around the corner from the gunsite. We stopped for lunch on a ledge that was just barely big enough to fit a buttock. That's me with the green rag on my noggin. My buddy Chris snapped the photo right before he sat down on the ledge too. We sank a cam at either end and strung the rope between them, across our laps, like a seat belt. Fond memories.

Near the summit of Mt. Madison, NH

Average Rating = 3.25/5 Near the summit of Mt. Madison, NH

On my way down from the summit I turned to get a quick photo of my pals following behind. This was one hellish climb. Not because of technical difficulty, but due to the fact that I had spent the previous week on a road trip around the great lakes, with strep throat and a 105 fever. I had no intention of letting that keep me from a climb with my buddies though. The wind was fierce on the summit cone and I was bootlegging it down as it was blowing right through my woolen knickers. After making this exposure, I tucked the camera in my jacket pocket, and with ice axe in one hand and the other covering the jewels, I hobbled down the rocks and ice screaming, "Oh please, oh please, frostbite anywhere but there!!!"

My first day climbing mixed ice

Average Rating = 2.86/5 My first day climbing mixed ice

This was my first experience climbing mixed terrain. Circa 1995. It was a top rope set up at Crow Hill, MA. (Yes, once every few winters, the ice comes in there... sort of.) I'm not sure who exactly took this picture. I just found it at the bottom of a drawer.

Warn your children to stay on the path after dark. There is evil lurking in the shadows. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
