Short routes on Green Phantom on Donner. Pushed at my limit on TR for a challenging (for me) .11 direct finish. Also led a .7. Had a great time and met some other great people today, and my better half had a good time visiting and getting out before the kid is born (due tomorrow, but running late like dad). Thanks S.T. and thanks to our new acquaintances! Sorry... no pics.

Nobody could go play this weekend so I made yet again another pilgrimage to my back yard peak.
Past this spot that should be familiar to the SGV and Pomona valley contingent.
The 9000' trees. only a 1000' of up from here
That ridge out there is my favorite "long day" way up here
Always a crowd on top. A veritable United Nations. Geezers, Hotties, Those with monstrous packs evidently doing some sort of penance,Metrosexuals, Koreans, Russians, Pinoy, Pinay, Topoians.
Never know where you are going to run in to one of them Topoian critters.

I hit Mt. Woodson:
Some fun on the warmup boulders, Victim of Aids and the three easy routes on that rock, Hear my Train A'Comin, and Big Grunt. Then the heat beat us back and we scampered off the mountain. It was a great morning. I need to get out there more often!

Many times. three Wildcats flew into the peak in the 40's. There are also the remains of a military Light observation craft up there as well in about the same spot. That may be the one from the 50's.
I've heard there's the remains of a C47 on the other side as well, but have never been to that site.
I quit counting how many times I've been to the top at 100+ quite a few years ago.
Skied it more than a few times too.

Went down to Rocky Mountain National Park to climb some of the outstanding boulders that can be found there. The weather's been so unsettled that long routes are out of the question. Did some classic moderates in Chaos Canyon and Emerald Lake.
My favorite boulder problem of the day: Autobot (V5). Honorable mention: Standard Overhang aka The Kind aka In Your Face (V5).
Just pure fun.
