Posted this in another bouldering thread, but I think it deserves to be here as well... One of the many good ones in Culp Valley:

The hard crack at Magnolia. Trivia questions: Who was the first person to actually walk up there and check it out? A week or so later, who was in the first big-ass posse to go and start cleaning up?

Ya missed a few, Ronny-O!


That's Frank Noble poking up head up in that gaggle of four girls, Accomazzo and Kevin Powell on the far right, Bullwinkle is the longhair standing behind Bachar, and Mike Lechlinski sitting down in front of Powell and Accomazzo. The midget Frank Noble is talking to the beanpole Erik Eriksson -- in this photo the top of his head looks like a bush! Fun day! Why is Bachar still wearing his EB's?!

I was at that contest, it was good fun.
I was in one of the group shots, but not the ones above.

Then I returned in the mid 80s for guidebook research.
Ron Amick and his posse took me on several guided tours of the area.

There is some good stuff.
I think Santee is better for bouldering, but you have to mix it up, so areas like Magnolia are a good diversion.

Ron showed me a bunch of other areas, it was good times...

BVB, Re: group shot...more evidence that you were hob knobbing with the hot guys while i was still learning how to customize my EBs (remember how we used to draw psychadelic designs all over the uppers?) On my gf, ya she was smokin hot and only lasted until she found a dude more hairy than me. But ya gotta remember, the tumbleweed 'do, giant moustache and 75% pubic hair body were in vogue in the 70's...

Craig, I had a great time climbing with you and helping out with the San Diego County portion of your bouldering guide. Your fiance that you brought down a couple times was hot, but we ran into her in mammoth a few years later and had dinner with her, and I must say bailing on that had to be one of your better decisions...nuff said.

The man in that photo cannot be Bob Van Belle, he has muscle on his arms. Its either photoshopped, or boOB on roids. But boB, if you had a steroids phase, wouldnt you have looked me up, smacked me around and made me arm rassle until i swore you were the best rootin tootin climber ever? Something isnt right here, could this be the start of bobbygate IV? And why have we heard nothing of bobbygates I, II and III? Time to come clean beevee....

I'm with Warbler.
Wish I'd been in climbing shape when I got the tour but even the easy problems like Yabosits were really good.
Can't wait to go back some day.
