Speak into my good ear W.L.
Reilly, I don't think that route is mixed enough for him. All that mixed stuff; looks like V and Scotland could be an item. Gnarley scary stuff! Thanks!

Oh, Oh, I know where that third pic is from! Cool place.
A swim to the island in the lake is a good place to chill after climbing.
EDIT: Did you do the awesome chimney slot, foreground of yer pic?

It would be really great if Vitaliy got himself banned and W.L. Could put his sprayguard on and post his TRs and messages for him a la the master format from beyond the intergrave.

I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for the next installment. If 2016 is the year of Monkeys Sending, what was 2015?
Keep up the good work.

2015 was a great year. Hopefully one of many. Was really lucky to climb with good friends and to get good weather when we needed it/time off work etc.

Yep, Gumby, that's the chimney! Pretty fun, a bit awkward at the top...
You can see the little island we swim to in your pic as well.
