Yesterday i did my usual solo routine @ the leap. Then i worked on my lead roped solo w/ the gri gri. why do I feel safer free soloing? I guess i feel pretty good about the gri gri catching me if i fall but it short ropes me so much that climbing anything solidly in my need a belay range seems sketchy?
Today I made it pretty high up a ridge trying to fill my freezer. watched te sun rise on a different ridge yesterday but this evening i was up pretty high. wind was honking and bambi was hunkered down. Found places where they had bedded down on small belay type ledges just below the top of a 40ft rock band. pretty cool stuff.

Yesterday, the routes on the Solarium (5.7/5.9/5.10d) then to Stitcher Quits then ended the slabby day on X-rated tits in Barker Dam.
Today we did two of my all time JT Lost Horse area go-to routes on cold days. Both hard 5.9. Those who know me know them.

So many great pics - really like the shot of Taurus up above. That climb reconfigured my lead head last winter, permanently.
Same climb, different perspective, back in 2007.
And Greg pulling the crux move:

Climbed at the Rock Maze by Nemo with my kids and my parents today and at the Sunshine Wall in Spearfish Canyon on Wed. Forgot a shoe on Wed. and a buddy borrowed me one that had been chewed by marmots and was two sizes too small but we made it work.

Happy Boulders late this afternoon. There were 82 cars at the parking! The record, at least by my counting, is 89 a few years ago, also on the day after Thanksgiving. An absolutely beautiful afternoon with mild temps.
