    Conditions on Liberty Ridge seem to be more dangerous in recent years than before.

    Thumb Rock used to be considered a relatively safe bivi site, but lately, there have been some deadly incidents there with climbers being killed by pieces of the mountain falling on them.

    Rainier is on my list, but I think I'm going to try Ptarmigan instead of Liberty.

    This could be a good year for Liberty Ridge. Problem is earlier melt out and lower snowpack. I like the idea of the solitude of Ptarmigan or Curtis.

    Thumb Rock is not “safe” just safer than anywhere else on the LR route to bivi.

    i recognize those tattoos. i think ginger cracks. but johnny vegas does have a very similar pitch on it, too - you just don't end up with the same vantage that the picture was taken from

    wouldn't it be the first pitch on johnny vegas and you'd have the big rock below, and for sure no gully. the background does remind me of rapelling solar slab gully though, although I don't see any tarantulas
    powdork.com - new and improved, with 20% more dork.

    It's definitely Ginger Cracks. I've never climbed Johnny Vegas.

    Last pitch of 3rd pillar? In that spot your at, green c3 for me. Then it’s all hero hand jams and a nice mantle out for the final move.

    the pitch is like really really thin face climbing up a broken crack, small gear, to an overlap, a hard right traverse, and the most uncomfortable hanging belay in the world (on a tipped out #3 and some small shit)

    Ahh fuck yeah man!

    Probably my best childhood memories are of climbing with my Dad in City of Rocks. I hope your kids had a blast, that is such a cool place!

    After work LCC stoke!
