    Nice. Petes is an awesome climb. I still remember that step out onto the face after the traverse. Right between the 2nd and 3rd pics. Looking back over your shoulder and only seeing cascade lake below. Quite the exposure.

    yeah. usually the classics are worth the hype if you get lucky enough to jump on these days.

    had another great one goofing around on the lower beer walls today, what a great crag.

    Fall is coming....
    The first ticino trip. Some easy stuff but only 5 Star lines. Going again Wednesday for the long holiday weekend. Still a bit warm. But I enjoyed the sun and of course the nice gneiss.

    Nice! I finally tried a 10a at Rumney this weekend. Ended up leading through all the moves with only a few falls, just was too burned up to do a red point burn.
    Really psyched on it as the line involved some hidden finger pocket beta that took a bit to suss out.

    Haven't been posting much here because climbing has taken a second - or third - priority to being a dad, fly fishing, and hiking with the family. Got out to city of rocks for what must have been my third trip of the summer - I was just stoked to be able to still onsite 10a on gear, even if that is a super low bar.

    some pics - one of me, and then my buddies, on various climbs over the weekend. good times!

    Didn't do any climbing but Yosemite sure is amazing. We did hike up El Cap from the valley floor and I went down to the rim and crawled on my belly to get a shot over the edge. I only climbed once in Yosemite BITD, which I kind of regret, but it sure is cool to hike around and look at all the legendary formations.

    one of the best 5.9 pitches around here. you cross the big chimney twice, which is somewhat heady) and it has a steep section in the middle where you just have to crank on rails. short day but so worth it for november. 34m routes are awesome.

    Looks great, love the many dimensions of a good broken chimney or dihedral.

    yeah, the trail of bolts helps a bit with that on this one, especially if it starts feeling like solid 11 instead of a warmup.

    hope that the bonus days continue until it turns into real winter, been really nice out lately if it’s not going to be snowy

    Ha, I love the "this feels way harder than the grade" then you slap yourself in the forehead and look at the other face full of good holds.
