Day 89 of 90: Horsetooth Resevoir

| December 21, 2012 | Reply

On our second to last day we visited a place I never thought I would-Horsetooth Resevoir. I was really excited to go as I had always wanted to climb Moon Arete and John Gill’s Pinch Overhang. A much more recent addition to the area is Doxology and this problem would round off my list for […]

The Stable Boy Boulder is home to my favorite wall in Hueco… The French Tickler and Mr Serious Wall. My goal is to tick all 10 straight up lines on the face of this boulder. Only two more to go! (Mr. Smiley V9 and a V7 to the left of French Tickler)

A very cool problem. As Rob mentions in the post. The grade maybe closer to V6, as I reflect on Acid Wash right I did a week ago from the stand and sit. I do believe Acid Wash right from the stand is a bit more technical and powerful, so V6/6+ is probably right. All […]

I managed to capture some good sends one nice morning at the Grandma Peabody. Good temps came in and psych was high. Jeremy Ho climbed the fierce Center Direct. I took down my nemesis The Mystery (felt like v12 to me!) and Mark Heal impressively fired off the burly and nasty Direction (V13). I will […]
