The point was perfect today. A little wind, but the rock was nice.

You know I almost got out there this morning for the first time in a long while. Pity. Maybe next week (if it doesn't rain).

Just a head's up! McClinski, my Canoga Park H.S., S '63 climbing buddy and I are planning to be out at Stoney on Wednesday, March 5th, work and weather permitting. Time is uncertain but mid-day is probably safe, for planning purposes, at least. Anyone else plan to be out there? Would love to connect with "regulars" even if we'd flounder compared to you all. Pyro! You around?!

Should I set the sushi tent up on top of one of the rocks? Stoney Point SushiFest has a nice ring to it, eh?

Sushi tent should be back by Boulder 2 so that the riff raff don't see it from the road. You could probably get a permit from the city to drive in and party till 10 at night or so.

Mega cheers Pyro for posting that! My bestest pal Guargoyle had shown it to me after Yabo had shown it to him. Stoney holds some of my greatest memories! My old pal Shawn Curtis pressing the "Lion's Head" when I was a lad...Priceless, Cheers! MP.

Hey Pyro, thanks for starting this thread.
From birth in 53' to 65' I lived about a 1/4 mile from Stoney.
While my father worked at rocket-dyne, stoney point was my playground.
Thanks to those of you who posted pictures of way-BITD. I can now put names to those I would pester for TRs when I was a single-digit-midget.
I had no idea who I was blessed with having as my early teachers/belay slaves. Your/their instruction, patience and kindness wasn't wasted.
I hadn't seen Stoney since then, not even a picture. This intarnet thang's pretty dang cool. Strange to see Stoney's now in the middle of suburbia.
Thanks again.
Shady

Hey Boo,
March 5th is not a Wednesday - it's a Saturday and is the day McLean's father-in-law, Dick Sykes, is celebrating his 80th. So if it is in fact a Wednesday that you plan to meet at Stoney, is it going to be March 2nd or 9th?
I'm sure Russ and Lori will be in Ojai on the 5th - as will I.

Thanks Don! It'll be Wednesday, March 2nd at Stoney. Any chance you can be down there then? I called Hennek about visiting him on the 3rd, but he may have to make a trip to Hemet. What's your plan for coming south? Was Hennek invited to Sykes' 80th? Will it be a bash or a small gathering of close friends & family?

I spoke with McLean a short while ago; sounds like a small gathering for Sykes for B-Day, but Russ says he'll be there if he doesn't have to work.
