Classic line at the London Wall and a great warm up for the the 12s down the line.

Jim working his longest 5.11a to date, at the Java Wall in Echo cliffs. A long line with good clipping holds.

This 12a has a low, bouldery crux, but gets easier the higher you climb. Lots of fun!

John leading his first outdoor 10c at Echo Cliffs. A very thin technical crux.

Trying to use a little technique on this steady overhanging 5.11c/d. A rather pumpy route. Photo taken by my friend Nate.

This is Michael making the transition from slab to overhang on his first outdoor 5.10d/11a. Photo taken by my friend Nate.

Michael stemming up to the next clip on this delicious climb. At this point he was sweating so much he looked like a glazed doughnut. Photo by my friend Nate.

This here is Nate climbing at the Stumbling Blocks at Malibu Creek. Nate likes to climb. He had fun.

A fun, pumpy 5.11c/d at Malibu Creek State park. Easy slab to high first bolt and then consistent over hanging climbing to the top.

Jim on Delicious, a 5.10d/11a at Malibu Creek. This climb was a nice long climb, but quite hot that day.

This climb turned out to have a key flake missing at the top bumping it's grade much higher than I anticipated. Unfortunately, I didn't get the warning until I got back to Roger's Campground that night. Still, one of the few dry climbs when it rains.

One of my favorite climbs at Franklin, but this area can get crowded when there are people on more than one or two climbing through the tunnel.

Either a 10d or a 10b depending on which guide book you look at, this climb has some super styley moves including a cool mantle move to a two finger pocket, then on to pulling a roof.(Photo by Elke Ruecker)

Me on belay while my friend Dustin leads Bircham's other. This tree offered a nice recline to watch this long route.

My friend Jon Tung (jman) on one of the new bolted climbs at Bubba City. Not sure of the name but I think it was a 5.7 or 5.8.

My friend Dustin on the start of Fabulous Groupies (5.9) at Summersville Lake, WV.

I figured this was the safest way to get Abbey down to the lake. We tried to find the notorius other way in, but this is her third time, so she's an old pro at it.

Nice climb at Summersville Lake. Crux is first few moves above ledge halfway up.

One of the new 5.8's at Bubba City, and my first chimney. Stem most of the way to the top (weird).

This was a 5.9 at Summersville Lake and only my second climb outdoors. I can't wait to go back and lead this one!

This is the signature climb Romeo's Ladder (a 5.8 I think) in the Section bearing the same name at Great Falls. A couple of hand jams near the top to finish it out.
