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?

guided climbers only, no stay at the house required.

‘twas a nice birthday gift

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.

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.

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:



Summit pitch tower:



500' of approach + 600' of climbing = airy views:



The desert all lit up at sunset:

Wow, that rock looks rad.

Some of the best I've climbed on. Quartzite with texture which is basically unheard of, you can actually smear on stuff and not immediately peel off. It's very hard to read though, cryptic bulges everywhere, long bouldery routes with good rests. Everything feels at least 1 full number harder than the rating onsight.
