Very nice pics all!

Grahm, awesome sunset pictures! Man what colors.

Thanks for the magazine pix Nate, what a wall!!

Man I got my new rig all ready for next season!

Whats the situation up there, south side stuff good?

I may have to head up for a couple before it's really over.

Who is down? Gray crew reunion?

Thanks Mucci! South facing crags have been perfect. A little colder now while this system moves through but Monday on looks great.

The bat is a little brown or big brown. Reeder told me the story of sharma sending Shawn Jones 5.13 project. I guess it came in at 13c. Looks bitchen for sure. Got close to shuteye last weekend and made it to the VALLEY...one of these days.

Mucci, you know I'm down. When and where? New rig??? Details, details??

Anyone going out there this Sat? Forcast looks good. Not sure how low or how much snow they got out of the storm yesterday. Should melt out today? Or might head up to Wawona Dome, should be mostly dry by tomorrow.

Grahmn, You getting out Sat? Love those boulders above the Queens Throne. Highball boulder fest!

Grahmn and Sue, we had a GREAT trip!!! Wish I was still there. Got off to a cold start but warmed up to be perfect temps. Even a little warm in shelterd areas. Spent most of the time at The Creek. Hiked on one of the stormy days in the Fishers. Went through Bryce on the way to Zion. Best hike ever in Bryce. Finished the trip in Zion. The Iron Mesiah in Zion is just Fun.








Sue, I am working very sporadically right now. Lots of free time but work can come up last min. Josh might come up on the 19th/20th? You are all welcome anytime. Come up tomorrow if ya want.

Okay, What a great trip! We've done that circuit before and I'd love to again some day. Flew into SLC, got a one-way rental and drove to Moab, Indian Creek, Canyonlands, Arches, thru Capitol Reef, Bryce and Zion. Flew out of Las Vegas. One of the best trips I've ever had! Thx for sharing the photos! I'll pm you our cell #s in case we can hook up even this w/e!

Yeah dammit - I've even taken to scoping out the snowmobiler forums looking for Grahm's exploits.

A bud of mine from Bass Lake punched his way into my summer homestead right after January's snow dumps - counted over 100 trees down across Beasore Road and Grizzly Road!!!!!!!!!

Measured 9-11 feet of snow at Cold Springs Summit!!!

I think climbing the SoYo is out for a while.

Nice high-res shot Biotch. Is that your route? Anyone know how many other routes are on that formation? Surely more than 2...?!?

100 trees down? Sheesh, now we're gonna need helicopters as well to get to our favorite crags.

Leo and Grahm have been out there on the sleds recently, but it sounds like it was mostly for the fun in the powder, and not on the rock. The outhouse at Cold Springs Summit is indeed completely buried.

And yep, I too am missing the place big time - so do we resort to waxing nostalgic and sharing a few very carefully edited photos? (Which I say with a LOT of hesitancy.)

mooch nears the top on an early ascent (second ascent, methinks), of Power to the People, thusly named because of the formations striking resemblance to a fist, as seen here.

A different angle on the same section. tiki-jer steps lightly thru 5.8 friction before knob cruising ensues.
