I've been chopping out the approaches and the bases of many of the climbs with help. Starving is one. I would die for you is pretty hard, I'd give it a V4/5. I did break off part of the first left hand face hold stepping off it so who knows now, easier or harder, depends on how it broke. Sharp little bugger though that you had to get just right. I did spend a few days working it prior to sending and had lots of energy and encouragement flowing from friends and onlookers below.

Just listen for music and sawing, smell for weed and booze, and you'll find us. Temps will be good this weekend.

Yes, I was that "blonde guy" "spotter" "who needs glasses".

That pic was indeed on a Deerhorn thread with my name attached.

Everyone knows that a Bee Hay Spot involves, pointing to a (landing) spot on the ground, and the generous advice, "that's your spot".

Honestly, I don't remember the day. I was most likely scouting a "real problem", not aided by some homo seam.

Correct, and Correct. Dang Eliot, too easy.

This seems to have that killer late in the day Woodson feel to it, eh? The two problems in the picture are?


Went to the base for a quick eyeball, doesn't look like they've been done for awhile.

Great pics Henny. I wish I could have made it out today. Looks like it was another great day up there.
