Hali getting ready to
climb "Dead Sea Equestrian" at the Parking Lot wall. This was actually
taken in September of 2000, but I really like the image! Let's do the
time warp again! It's just a jump to the left...
|
Hali cleaning the anchor
at the first pitch of "Hot Head" at the Hinterlands. This injury free
season allowed Hali to conquer a number of challenging routes that
had previously given her trouble.
|
This is a shot of Tony
being one with the rock during a nice lead up "Egg McMeadows" at the Parking
Lot wall. Only his second season climbing, Tony kicked butt this year!
|
This is Lisa following
on "Egg McMeadows". She makes it look so easy...
|
This is Tony trying to
focus on the belay, but he can't figure out where that funky smell is coming
from (note the 2 pairs of climbing shoes we placed right behind him).

Hali cleaning the "Trigger
Happy" anchor at Triple Corners.

This is the reservoir
in Camden near the house of our friends, Karen and Dennis.
|
This was taken at the
anchor of "Charity Case" on the Main Cliff. We were attempting the
all-sport link up to "Dead Toad", but the traverse right was very sketchy.
|
The beautiful view was
just another good excuse to climb "Charity Case".
|
This image shows the "Jolt"
and "Dolt" arete at the Hinterlands. The climber opposite Mike dislodged
a large rock that crashed down very near his belayer.
|
This shot of the same
arete shows you just how thin that edge gets. Look closely and you
can see that two of the bolts are placed to the right of the fracture line
that make this a very scary route. The whole flake system looks like
it really wants to be free.
|
This is Mike leading up
"The Little People" at the Hinterlands, and just about to make the first
hard moveof the route. The rope on the right is running through the
anchor of the (much shorter ) "Tang" route.
