Mike, sounds like a pretty solid few days of climbing - you will be worked for sure, but the crack stuff isn't as hard on you as the bouldering stuff. If you want some beta, just let me know.
Jason, we are leaving Saturday night / Sunday morning. We are camped at the bridger jacks, about across from broken tooth / cat wall. Look for a big green tent and KY plates on a tacoma, and OH plates on an explorer. Would be cool to meet up with you all for sure.

Very, very cool trip. Many thanks to Kneebar for the rides to and from the airport, and to and from the crag, and the breakfasts and dinners that were more extravagant than the ones I eat while at home. This man knows how to camp! Also thanks to Wes and Horatio and Delroy for adding some amusing memories to the first half of the trip. Whatchou want Natalie!?!?
I can't wait to get back out there-- the trip was a great balance between getting my ass kicked and feeling successful. Some amazing routes out there!

Ken rules. How can you not love a man that know the subtle differences of salmon v. mauve v. fusica; can flash 5.12 trad routes, and is one of the best gourmet camping chiefs around? Fun times, no doubt.

Made it back home last night. Excellent road-trip. Had a great time climbing and hanging out with some of the stonemasters Wes, Matt, Delroy, and Yasmen from the red. Thanks for coming out, can't say enough for the memories.

Have to spray a little for Yasmen! She sent 2 classics at the creek 120' Excuse Station, 5.11 and 160' Pente 5.11, both in the same day. Super strong onsite!
I also have to report a bit of sadness to those of us that have been protected by the loving warmth of the big green tent
The big green tent took a hit from a strong storm just before leaving the creek, bending a main pole and ripping parts of the canvas. I will try to repair, if not successful, we will miss you big green tent. May we hang our heads for a moment of silence...................

Oh no!! Not the green tent
I will say a prayer and sacrfice a goat to the tent repair gods under the next full moon.
Nice Yas, Pente is a cool one for sure.
Kneebar - you get back on Big Baby?

He sent Big Baby!! Ken, you BAMF humble man. Why don't you tell them about the multiple 12s you onsited/sent/made look like 5.7?
The potential death of the big green tent is a tragedy indeed-- thankfully, Google Maps took the satellite photo before its passing, so you can still type in Big Green Tent, Indian Creek, UT and get results.
