Bootied a cam too. Surprised more people weren't there. Even more surprised the other guys turned out to be someone we know!

Made it out to the Selenites with Rick today. Turned out to be a really nice day. Repeated an established route and established a new one, calling it Sunshine. 5.8ish? Single pitch on the right side of sphinx.
Can't upload any of my other shots due to size. All panoramic. Oh well. Saw some caterpillars

Another beautiful day out there in the wilds where few climbers roam. Cool temps tempted us again to the the formations sunny side. This route, the 7th on Sphinx's southern face is on the far eastern side. Continuos left leaning handcrack that eats pro.
Thousands of quality routes still to be done. Perhaps by later generations.

Later this summer Moose, maybe June or July, jonnyrig and I will have to get you out there again. New routes this next time. Lots of unfinished business on the shaded northern exposures if the temps are high.

Moose, you mean next to the river? That's book of Red. It's at the end of river road, where boats take out just above the washed out dam.
And yes, hoping to get out again in June. If i can make it we're taking two 4x4s to do some ridge running and explore new formations.

I spoke with a guy who has been establishing some boulder problems out at Egyptian Ridge in the Selenites. His dog stepped on a hunting trap near the base of a wall. He saw several more in the area.
So be careful hiking around out there - especially with your furry friends.
