A Day At The Pool

My buddy Jason Prezant made me reminisce about “soggy nachos and strangely warm areas of the pool”… classic. Well I got some hilarious photos of these kids going hard on the diving board. AMERICANA in the tiny town of Buffalo, Wyoming.!!!! Now we are in Maple Canyon getting out strength back… Back to normal.

Oh yeah???

Oh yeah???

C'MON SON!!!!

Over and OUT!!!!

One of the things I love best about making a living as a climber and climbing full time is the freedom. When the feeling hits you are able to pack up and peace out. We woke up today and that happened. Do we have to pack up? Yes. Do we have to retrieve draws and stashed ropes? Yes. Am I leaving some open projects for the people of Wyoming? YES… and are we PSYCHED!!!!???? HELL YES!!!!!! We are heading to Wild Iris today and will be there until Sunday… the it is OR TIME…. and that means draining the brain and talking till your jaw falls off. Yup… once again it is that time of the year. Summer time and Trade Show time. I got business to speak of when I attend these things… the socializing is completely second. IMA PROFESSIONAL!!!!

The highlight of the end here was sending the Doomsday Project at the French Cattle Ranch. Kevin Wilkinson and Ally Rainey bolted this beauty. All blue and ALL tech. I did it third go and with a crowd below that got me stoked…. Thanks for the route Ally and Kevin… PERFECTION!!!!

New route I sent at the FCR... another 14a called Doomsday.
