We Make This Look Easy!

Shane pulling through the stand start of Barfly, LCC

This was the my first go on this problem for the day. I was pulling through it strong when Scott snapped this picture. Not 2 seconds later, I was getting ready to top out and my hand popped off! Holy crap, talk about your life flashing before your eyes! This was one of the nastiest falls I have taken! Feet and hands to the sky, I landed square on my back! Thank goodness for the best spotters alive (Scott and Jason) and for our handy dandy crash pads. If it weren't for them I would probably be a pile of bones at the bottom of this boulder!

This was Scott's problem for the day. A killer V5 to work on until fingers are raw , which doesn't take long on this crystally boulder. (It's like taking a cheese-grater to your finger tips.) Well, after multiple attempts and limited resting, Scott looked awesome as he topped out on this classic problem.

Jason's crazy way of climbing these problems is always a spectacle watch! His energy is always hard to keep up with and it helps motivate all of us to keep going!

Many of years have past since this blog was buried but I feel it is time for a ressurection!!! I feel the locatind and developing of more local, and semi local crags are a must. We need more boulders. Anyone with on information on where tofind these somewhat mythical and magical creatures....please chime in!

This blog had been dead for awhile now, However it is now time for it's ressurection!!!! We need to find new boulders and develop new crags near and around our area. So if anyone has seen any of these somewhat mythical, yet magical creatures (preferably in herds, flocks, schools, murders, be sure and pass on that info.
