Rick McCusic and I topped out on the Nose in June 1992. It was a wonderful experience and my first time to the summit of El Cap.

For her first multipitch climb, I took Allison up the League of Doom and then finished with the ultraclassic Spaceballs pitch. She loved it!!

Chauca is owned by Julie E and accompanies Julie on many trips. She's always well behaved.

Stacy did a wonderful job of leading this stiff 5.9 located on Mount Scott in the Wichita Mountains of Oklahoma. The route has a scary 10 foot run-out at the crux. She cruised it.

Picture of Duane at Quartz back in the early days. Not sure who took this photo but Jimmy Ratzlaff sent it to me several years ago.

One of the great partnerships in the Wichitas was formed by Jimmy and Jon. Here's a photo of the first ascent of Critical Mass during the fall of 1978. Jon is leading and he managed to really scrape his arm up on the rough rock inside the crack.

Matt on Spaceman Spiff. The route has one bolt and then protects with small cams from 0.3 to 1.5 inches. The finish is a little burly for a 5.10 and very memorable.

Julie Emory on the crux move of the "Unnamed Route" on Hidden Wall. This route is to the left of Serpentine and is one of the best routes in the Wichita Mountains. Its rated 5.9 but its very sustained.

This guy helped us bolt this new variation to an old climb by bringing the drill and bolting gear. It doesn't look like he's having fun does it?

Who is this guy???? Most of the time he's mild mannered, easy going climbing retailer....but once he arrives at the crag he just goes "Mr. Hyde" on us! I quickly snapped this photo of him after he calmed down a bit.

Well....here it is! After a long wait, we finally went back for a gander. Bolts are still there. Pins are still there. A couple of draws hang off of the last bolts before the final obstacle...a ten foot horizontal roof with few holds!!! A word of caution..before you go move onto the block at the end of the rail system...test it...the last time I was on it I swear I felt it shift!!!

Chris Marks (berkly) doing the first ascent of this fine route. I had been eyeing this thing for years but always thought that it was filled with poison ivy. As Matt and I were trying Corndog, which is located just to the right of the crack, I suggested to Chris that it would make a fine first ascent. He agreed and quickly sent it while stripping the vines out of it as he climbed. This route is very classic. It has a kinda scary "no hands" traverse down low and then a good crux near the end that felt like solid 5.9 to me. Great climb for a guy on his first trip to Crab Eyes!!!
