I'll be there. A little Indian Rock action before hand sounds good too.

its an amazing movie. felt really honored to watch it a few years ago when there was no audio and you actually needed Roper and Steck to narrate it.

I-Rock is generally bouldering, but you can also tr or scramble or traverse 6" off the ground or whatever.

it's surprisingly versatile for a small area.

sure, I'll buy you one...maybe better for me AFTER rather than before.

And I am definitely up for some climby-climby, either Ironworks or Indian Rock as people prefer. I have never climbed at either, would rather go to IR for the historical aspect and the fact that it is outside.

Hard to fit the beer in. First climbing then driving...may need a voucher. Or whoa, let me cousult my expert....Tucker Tech, he'll know how to handle this situation :DD

I can get to Indian Rock about 4:45 to 5:00. Sounds like Jaybro is leaning that way too. I'm the guy who knows the easy problems because I never could do the hard problems, even though I live five minutes away.

Look forward to meeting you all.

Much respect for Mr. Steck. I had the great honor of tying in to his top rope at turtle rock and saying hi and shaking his hand. Turtle Rock is the prettiest area in the Bay. Great Fun. Also, following Chile Dog (Andreas) up the Steck Salathe Narrows with a pack was the hardest thing I remember doing...ever. (even harder than the Harding route. on Conness)
