The weather has been basically perfect for almost three weeks, so I've been slacking as much as possible from work in order to climb (not today or tomorrow, though). Did more of this kinda stuff on the weekend:

Got out to the Harney flow today. It was in beautiful condition. Some of the other stuff that was in has since melted out/washed away.

Looks like the bolt must have come off or broke.

On Saturday, wifey and I made it out to Echo Cliffs in the Santa Monica mountains. Beautiful approach hike, fun climbing. We did a couple of things past Easy Street, but didn't have a guide for it. Loose!

Got out to High Desert, CA, yesterday--the Dead Zone. Once you battle through the trash/graffiti belt, the climbing areas above are nice. For once we had a party of three, so we could get some decent photos. Karen took this nice one of yours truly on "Tell Me a Story" 10c. Hard for us! Fun climbing, great day, thanks for the pic, Karen!

A very thin and exceptionaly mean Le Promenade. The lower pitches were very poorly protected and when we finally got to the upper protectable pitches we realized we forgot the long screws...
I did a lot of praying today and I did not even lead anything... The Rat is fat and happy now:)

Climbed in Nemo in temps that were in the mid 50's while doing some Christmas Tree Hunting with the family.Much of the upcoming week is supposed to be in the upper 50's. I guess the polar vortex is over and climate change is back or is it global warming.

Looks sketchy hard trad. Be careful. You know it will get fatter. You guys have had to wait a while this year, aye?

nice work Jefe and Mike and Nick!
You guys are insane. And I dig it!
Oh yeah, I did a new-to-me steep slabber dabber finish on the next-to-the-tip-top, over-the-big-drop fracture system just beneath the last real up pitch.

Dudes, I was 12 feet out on a sketchy move, no gear - I hung this marginal undercling...reached up for the clean move - then the whole thing shifted to two points of contact... I was almost off in full gear with a ground-fall potential!
I was able to down-climb the 16' ladder 4 rungs before the whole thing blew.
I landed like a cat and grabbed the ladder before it smashed into the $3000 heating unit.
I then had to get back up and send the pitch. I gripped the sill better the next time.
It was epic.
