For a second there I thought I saw a picture of kneebar falling on gear!
Great shots! I hope you are all have a fantastic time. Who am I kidding! Of course you are having a great time.
Is that one picture the anchors with HO the first half of one of those climbing video sessions? Man, I wish I had a memory for names.

Nice photos. If you get over to Castle Valley and have never done "Fine Jade" it's a must do.

Thanks, been a pretty damn fun trip so far.

Paul, no gear ripping, just a former Lexington local taking a little air.

Va, I have Ken on the Wes Allen "falling (alot) on gear" program - he has already taken a couple falls. I have taken at least 20 so far - best way to learn to climb finger cracks? Try to lead 5.12 splitters. Ummm, nothing like having your feet cut on one finger lock while trying to place some gear...

No towers this trip - just trad craggin'.

oh so yummy, Wes! Glad you're having a good time. Not so glad that I'm not completely jealous, though...

King cat is wicked awsome (the photo of the big fall out the roof). Cat Wall is definitely one of my favorite areas out there. Nice pics Wes

I miss that place! Nice photos. Looks like you guys are having fun and getting on lots of great routes. Makes me want to take a trip back to Utah. We have photos from Indian Creek and Utah all over our walls at home. I'm looking forward to seeing more photos...
