Thanks for the links, luca and Wes-- I'm now sufficiently intimidated. But I still want to give it a try this spring.

I think my fav problem this weekend was Man With Slow Hand(w/o the toe jam). That place has so many great lines. I love how much your body position and tension will make you or break you, its not just big reaches from one jug to another or its not all just crimp strength. You really know your bouldering when your on those problems. Had a great time climbing and partying with everyone. Wes is a walking guide book, even to areas that he hasnt spent much time in, thanks man.

I know some good ones that shouldnt chew you up,Yasemen. 5.7 s usually have face holds. Save the Lorax for sometime that you want to get beat.Full Moon would be a good first one.It even tops out.Cool route.

I've actually done Full Moon! That was a sweet route-- I really enjoyed working out the last 10-15 feet. If you can find me some more stuff like that I'll be all for it!

Did you work the crack on the last pitch or chimney it? I think we used the rotten stump on top as part of the anchor,not much else there.

while we're at it:

There are huge claw marks all around that end of Half Moon from belayers who have been pulled off by their seconds. No joke.

I did the chimney, and didn't pull my belayer off either!

Hey Climb High thanks for recommending Slow Hand. I always thought it was contrived, so I never got on it. But it turned out to be one of my favorite V4's there.

Wes/Mia are the coolest road trippers.

horse pens is like an amusement park for climbers, make sure you bring plenty of tape and superglue for your fingers. I highly reccomend popyev5 it is the shit.
