east face of the Maiden is fun, casual approach as long as the mule deer don't want to mate, I'd commute from Vegas if I was you

Breakfast place was probably Walnut Cafe. Really good food. Also nice bike shop in same strip mall.

John, we met at Tackett's a few years ago one night. Anyway, I wrote the new color guidebook to the Flatirons. If you need any specific info or maybe even a place to crash, email me directly at

Can't remember the name. I do rememeber being flooded out, wading in waist high freezing cold water to retrieve our tent. That same trip I had the most shameful 1/2 day of climbing ever trying to lead the 2nd pitch of the 1st flat iron.
