Grug! The only reason i haven't posted here, is i've been fortunate enough to have many fine partners. I need a little time to get this post together and i have ten other projects on the backburner still!!
Can someone clone me?? He'd hate me because i'd make him do all the work.... Lol

some people you climb with, and then, some people you climb with
one of my favorites: I had climbed pretty soft all day. I quivered and quaked and spoke aloud to the heavens to get through the top two leads of Sentinel Spire.
Then we hiked over to the Otto's Route. Admiral Grungebunny took off barefoot, off belay. Shortly thereafter I was seconding the final overhang (major exposure!) and starting to wimp out, when Andy says:
"Wait dude you're not on belay."
I learned a lot about my own self that day. If the mind wills it, etc.
"WAAY TO GO DONNY! State of Israel: If you will it, dude, it is no dream." Deep, heavy liberating stuff.

this guy. Hellroaring. Only other guy i know, besides Mtn Young, who loves Pinnacles as much as me.
We met 15 years ago working at Marmot in Berkeley and our friendship goes beyond climbing, but climbing is the glue...

I previously mentioned Jim Donini, since I'm still climbing with him, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention John Bouchard, as well. John lives on the West Coast, and has retired from serious climbing, but we did many 1st ascents together over the years, a few walls in Yosemite, as well as classic routes in the Alps.
