Thanks le-Bruce. I am thinking that maybe we should be attending the first annual Jim Herson Tween Big Wall Camp.

Newly reopened sport crags at Safe Harbor on the Susquehanna River, http://safeharborclimbing.com Prolly not a whole lot of excitement for all you lucky Westies, but it's a little gem of a place as far as the Mid-Atlantic goes. Been no-access for the past twenty years or so, now a public rail trail runs along the base, yippee.

Beautiful day to get out and plug some pro too.

Mike M - me and the 3 yr old daughter are signing up for this summer's "Toddlers on Dark Star, Car to Car" camp. Which Herson camp are you doing?
Stich - that New Era is such a fun route. Have you done it as 1 pitch? That makes for a fun time. Ever do Alligator Soup right next to it? That is some of the Garden's best rock. Love that place.
Thanks everyone for the great photos and stories. Love this thread, so positive.

Took some new friends up to estes creek. Aaron got the probable second ascent of the big flake and we got hit by pretty intense thunderstorm where we cowered under a boulder and our pads for at least a half hour.

Mike, maybe third ascent of the big flake, I took a lap on that thing when Spud and I were up there a couple years ago. Cool area, gotta love those Black Hills thunder boomers. Let me know next time your down in CO.
Back on topic. Climbed some TR solo ice in Vail, pretty nice being up there all alone. John

John good to hear from you. That flake is a little on the thin side. The first time I did it I pulled off a big platter sized flake that was about a 1/4 inch thick and fairly heavy.

No pics but took my brand spankin' new bouldering pad out for the first time to Pie Shop.
Was pleased to find so many other climbable lines that didn't even make the guide book.

yesterday,
another new route in an obscure corner of Yosemite... 3 pitches
2 hour hike in
wonderful to sit there with only the wind in the trees, the bird song, and the sound of waterfall filling the Valley

First contact with rock this year at Sehome Hill in Bellingham. We had our first warmish and sunny weekend. The thousands of Ks of XC skiing seemed to have worked as the circuit went well. Not a big deal but returning to familiar haunts for some gravity wrestling is always a treat.

Hey, I was out at CCC on Saturday myself. Got on a couple hard routes at the Dog House. Couldn't quite get 'em done though. Just waiting for a cooler day.
