    Ah cool. I climbed in Clear Creek just one day many years ago, but at least I got to experience it. Nice rock.

    It's fun rock, and the sheer volume of climbs is insane. Not the longest climbs in the world (that one is 5-6 bolts), but can be some really fun climbing to be had. There is still a ton of development going on which adds to the value of the place. Great year round climbing too as long as you chase sun/shade.

    FKNA, Skytop lived up to expectations. Best day ever. Here I am following on Crash and Burn... You climb this free standing pillar to the top and then have to get over the main wall before finishing up on thin face. 5.9 holds, 5.14 exposure.

    Must have taken me ten minutes of standing at the top to commit.

    Haha...no gram. We actually used to gather at somebody's house and have slide show parties after climbing road trips if you can believe that.

    Classic pic. I think that was the cover shot for the guide in the 90s.

    Whats the deal with skytop now? Do you have to be a guest of the Mohonk House to climb there?
    In with the 9.

    the bouldering down low was way easier on the fingers then being at the top of cliffs too. tons of respect for those guys like TC that wait till this kind of weather to crush.

    nice 10 crack

    Fall is Ticino time. My buddy checking the slightly high ball exit of power strips 7b+/7C (v8/9)
    The top part is 6a only. Two hard moves at the start. Click image for larger version.

    Wrapped up a new 7 pitch route high above the West Desert this weekend. It was a long time in the making. For those of you who are familiar with the area, the new Sevier Lake potash mine project will probably we visible in the upper left corner of the 3rd pic. Because "wastelands" need to be monetized and destroyed one way or another. The mining company even adopted the name of the peak in the last shot.

    Crux pitch:
