Big Mike tricam sighting. Style points.
Very nice, Nick! You're getting out a bunch.
Did P1 take anything bigger than 13s? That start looks damn brittle from the comfort of this chair...

Tradman that looks awesome. Jack and I are camping in the south fork right now and the big meltdown is on. Climbed with a couple of South African ice climbers(who knew) today we were the only ones in the valley.

I would bet the bank that the Myth is out. It did come in breifly I believe before the january thaw but did not reform to my knowlege? Not certain but i do not think the myth had a complete ascent this year?
Ed you are a lucky man to get on that thing when it was in!

My arse is dragging big time from the stomach bug i had wed night... skinned in about 3/4 of a mile to my local crag and layed in the snow at the base of the cliff for 20min. managed to suit up and solo a 35m 4-
Something fell out of the sky and hit my helmet hard enough to see stars when I was about 80ft off the deck. took at least a 10m rest at a stance about 15ft from the top. Slogged through the snow to the rap station. Got back in my skies and dragged ass back to the car.. even the downhill sking was too much work......

A friend and I hit Tahquitz so he could get some trad climbing practice. I followed The Open Book. Weather was great out there, and due to a variety of injuries that I've accrued recently I had to get creative on climbing techniques. FYI: You can step the 2nd pitch without touching the crack at around 5.10-5.10+. Good times.

Easy climbing on The Blob, JTree; heinous descent for such an easy route.

It would take a lot to knock me off an ice climb. I was just wiped out from whatever virus is lingering in my system...
