Led this (on the left) at dark. Forgot the Silent Partner, so just pushed a couple prusiks up. Stuck my rope. Forgot to bring a light. Had to scramble around to the top in the dark to find the rope and then the truck. Oops. Dog ate some sage while I was climbing... you ever have to use a toothpick on your dog? sigh. At least I got out.

nice trip with Gary to the Pinn's last Sunday... warm warm weather and a really great time at Discovery Wall (though a lot of other people had the same idea, so we have an excuse for low productivity, even without the short day reason).
Please don't take this post as an endorsement to do Lost Horizon, while it had some really good parts, the traverse that Gary is leading in the picture featured rotten holds and lichen/moss for the feet, and was the scene of a 2013 ANAM report.
The more difficult variation goes up the thin crack just about where he is, and while a bit more desperate, you probably won't be surprised by the choss just to his right (until you get up to the exit moves, that is).

Spirit Mountain, Christmas Tree Pass, Laughlin NV.
Just moved here before Christmas. Did not quite make the summit of Spirit Mt., late start and ran out of light but had a fun half day on the rocks.

OK, now you're just showing off...

edit: Grafton amphitheater, Trad; everything from 2+ flows to that little couloir in the left corner and hanging daggers, all in about 100 yds. Sweet!

Climbed yesterday and today at Shelf Road.
I know, I know, 52 year old men should act and dress their age not their shoe size, but in my defense it was pretty damned warm.
