Pulled out part on my climbing rack and had it spred so that I could get gear together for a rute I was planning on doing the next morning. And though it was an oportune time to a take a picture of the gear.

route called Peaches, on an amazingly cool (85 degree) evening. What A GREAT ROUTE on a awesome evening in the middle of summer. Can't get much better on a one pitch wonder. Unfortunately all I had was my camera phone and I knew the light wasn't going to help me out as the cliff faces east and I was out climbing in the early evening.

I am interested in climbing these walls as they have beautiful striations and exposure that really peak my interest. Besides they are high up in elevation being that they are near to the tallest peak in yosemite.

looking North from Wrights lake towards mount Price. Headed to grouse lake @ 8200' elevation

Pulling a fun route that I was introduced to by Vera Schult-Pelkum @ RRR clinic 06.

This was Monies 1st bouldering trip out side and first time using a heel hook. She learned quickly to expect the blood offering to the rock god when climbing real rock.

I love this boulder, it has such a variety of problems in a boulder and difficulty can change so greatly with the weather and tide.

This was Monie's 2nd time outside climbing. What a trooper, and she really had fun pull'n hard on what ever route I laid out for us to climb.

Every time I'm going up wrights road and am able to look west, I see climbing to my hearts content. I've yet to get a partner back in to explore these climbs.

Phote taken from the saddle going to Modrate Mecca. I just loved to red hues in the late afternoon sun.

Just sending for the 2nd time Dr. Vera's off width roof problem. It's a very fun problem to work.

Lj is one of the neighborhood kids that my kids play with and has lived in Las Vegas for 5 years and had never been to Red Rocks. He had never been climbing either, and he loved it as well as did his sister. We were begged to bring them along again when we go out again.

Unfortunately he forgot his shoes and has out grown his climbing shoes. Dad is the process of ordering him a new pair of Sportiva - Fuegos.

My wife insisted on bring her fog dog (shitsu) out to the crag. The funny thing was that she'd just given him a bath and by the time we were tired of bouldering, his fur was no longer white but stained shades of red. Hey I have to admit he loved being out with the family. He's still a fog dog though

Jp work'n caustic on cannibale crag. Nice to see him send it.

Bryan sends Caustic and was readying to belay JP's try.

John (JP) pulling on caustic as the last route of the day. Good climber on a burly route.

holly climbing a 5.8 trad route on canibal crag. Good time had by all at the crag.

Over looking bridge mountain from north peak on an over night trip.

Camped at grouse lake and was playing around with my Olympus D-535, trying to see what I could get it to do. This picture is untouched other than changing the format from raw to jpeg.

Photo was taken by the good folks over at Mountain gear during their sponsored event (Red Rock Rendevous 05) He's getting help by his Granddad who was just pleased to spend the day with him while Dad was out at the clinics.

Working one of the many problems at Powerhouse Have been told they have changed their name to Red Rock Climbing Center.

Funny that my boys won't trust the rope and really climb. They prefer to boulder and seem to like the highball. Conner is 6 and just now is showing more interest.

My eldest son Aiden traversing. He's out grown his climbing shoes. Damn Dad!!! Gotta Get New Shoes!!!!!
