Oh..... it's an award given out by Climbing Magazine. This year (or was it last year?), the Huber Brothers got the award for Big Wall Climbing.... Steph Davies was another recipient as well as Jason Kehl.....

The western bais is keeping team safety down. The have retained the services of a very talented, well known, local photographer and BBS admin to help overcome that this year. That picture is showing the great shape that team leader Johnny is in, and it is still early in the season. I mean, we must have hiked nearly half a mile, some of it was even uphill, to get to that spot. Notice the pink tape? The red flags? Team Safety has big plans for routes so long that they need to flag them! Now doing mile+ routes in the red is something for the golden piton people to notice!

Check here for some more background:

I can't take the itching, Spuzo. I had to shave!
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.
