Skychick, thanks much for the photos! Ah, the days of red bull, tuna snack packs, and gummi bears while shreading tips during the day, and tequila at night. Don't know about the long hair thing again - it was nice, but kinda a pain as well.

So, had a fun few hours going through a couple dvd's of older photos, and thought I would share more then a few. Will break the posts up a bit. And, most should be mine, but if not, I will try to give credit where I know who took the photo.


Fuck the red, we are heading south!

Great, Wes!

I think that was my second lead belay. Hee Hee, Hefe wouldn't let me belay the second pitch! :shock:
