It was a good time! Very nice to meet some of you that I have known of for years and to see some old friends that I haven't seen for years.

What size is that headwall crack? Dunno gear wise, just typing pumps me out so I wasn't climbing, but sounded like ring locks to tight hands at best; solid 12 originally. The Dr says the edge has blown out a bit from falls on cams so that feet get a tad better purchase than earlier ascents would've shown; prolly mid/low 12 now.
3 cruxes; my notes on grade are at home. Tough 12A transition at the bottom, technical 11+ fiddling at the lip under the headwall, then headwall ~12B. Mebbe Joel will post up!
I have to say ... have to .... Joel smoothed that thing on-site flash (I'm pretty sure he'd not been on it prior) and I can tell you he is rock solid as well as a pure joy to witness out on the stone; solid feet, consumate gear skills, super methodical, and never rushed ... not at that grade.

Nice pics so far. Really bummed my schedule was so heinously demanding for the last 2 weeks that I had to miss out (or pay the price!!!).
The Voo fest looks to be much, much more likely a go for me, though. =)

I'm sorting through about 700 photos Whoops... I'm probably only responsible for ... um, like 650 of those. Sorry!
You know how in tennis it's bad form when rallying to knock a ball too far crosscourt and out of reach of your opponent such that they just have to go and fetch the ball with their hands? ... and then out of politeness and a tinge of guilt it is customary to yell across the net: SORRY!
Hopefully picking up that court full of errant tennis balls will be worth our while Doug!

And he even had time to bust a move or two . . .
I had a very relaxing weekend. I really want to thank Doug for helping to turn our "virtual" community into an "actual" community. It is always good to hang out with old friends, and to meet some new ones at the same time.
Sushi Fest is truly something special.
Way to go, Nature! You da Man!!!
