Man, this might be my new favorite bouldering area if only it was closer to something. Very cool setting, very, very cool problems and some of the hardest rock I have ever touched. Bouldering would be the reason to go there, but if you are a hard-core traddie there are two of the steepest cracks that I have seen there on this 45-50 foot boulder. I think they come in around 5.13ish.

First, one more pic from Bishop:

And me, making the 2nd hold (my high point) on Bigger is better.

Holy crap Wes!!! How much weight have you lost?!? You look friggin' skinny in that pic...

great pics, wes! thanks for sharing!

Now if that doesn't get you stoked for headin' west.

Thanks for the pictures! Show us the crack, Show us the crack (not that I have a chance in hell sending it)

Wow. Nice pictures & LLR was right...you are lookin slim!! Downright skinny in that picture...aren't they feeding you out there?

Are you giving all your grub to the pooches?

I love Ibex so much. That place is amazing. I found it to be sort of like a fantasy land with having to drive forever to the middle of nowhere, then driving over the dried up lake to some incredible rock. It would be a drag though if that was the closest rock for you since it is quite remote.

I didn't realize those cracks went at 5.13. I got on one of them but bailed at the fixed piece about halfway up. Nice pics Wes

Rebeckah... ahhhh. And yeh Wes, your supposed to climb the boulders not move them around, quit working out so much.

Wes's arms look ripped. I keep coming back to look.

I keep coming back too, but for a different picture.

I just keep coming back to daydream about climbing there. I have some videos with the IBEX in it rocks to see people I've climbed with there.
