Pitch 3 of the professor falls a Canadian Rockies classic we did it pretty fast (2.5 hours) due to a lot of simul solo

professor falls a Canadian Rockies classic

Almost at the top of the second pitch on fine WI in Alberta

one 60m rope rap will put u back on the ground from the second belay

The most scenic bathroom u will take a dump in (SW face of Johannesburg)…All I need now is my Alpine magazine

Johannesburg the massive piece of rock in front the Boston basin one of the most dangerous peaks in the north cascade unfortunately a forest fire was raging on one of its slops so that is the reason for the cloud to the left of it

On 9/1/2003 John and I went to do the direct east ridge of forbidden peak after strenuous 2 hours from high camp we stood on the first gendarme this is my picture leading the 8 pitch (John is the Yellow dot on the upper Center of the picture and me is the White dot to the Right of the summit ridge) I will call it “Mini-me and bumble bee”

Here is me in Boston basin and behind me is Quien Sabe Glacier with Shark fin, Boston and Sahale (left to right)

John following the last pitch on DER behind him on the left is the Boston glacier and on the right is the upper portion of Quien Sabe glacier

Just capturing the sights from the East Ridge the predominant mountain is Glacier Peak BTW, the haze is smoke from a Forrest fire in the other side of Johannesburg

In memory of last Ice season and having a cold dreams ….ohhh ICE

In memory of last Ice season and having a cold dreams ….ohhh ICE I just cant wait

Getting ready to TR some nice staff (WI-6) so I have to work on my cardiovascular ability…so you got a smoke???

Me leading the “Little black dike” just a simple climb (WI-3) on mid February weekend

Here I am soloing some climbs out at the Catskill Just for the fun of it after leading some climb next to it

Here is another when I am soloing some climbs out at the Catskill after a fun lead on the neighbor pilar

This is the picture that Passengergirl took of me after me giving her hell...I got to get her on some real climbing

Here is the crux of “High Exposure” Pretty awkward move for a 5.6 the beta is go with the left hand although the right is very tempting and bring the 3.5 or 4 Camelot with double shoulder length sling to protect this move

My first lead (Te Dam 5.7 ***) after my agonizing knee injury I’m still very shaky and I lead with “5.10 Guide almighty” the best shoes if u get back on rock after a legs injury

After a while of not using my ledge it was the time to give it a try again so Brett and I spent the night on Mordor Wall…one of the best sleep we had

Me relaxing on pitch II after the hauling, taking a Kodak moment. first time doing the prow, what a great route

Oh Yeah Mordor wall. What a great route (lately we doing only classics I tell ya…) this is Brett in a complete pose for the Camera…go man…Nice lead (BTW it being taken seconds before he went for a 15’ dive and 6”X1’X3’ expendo went down with him

After all hell broke lose Brett is up again taking it easy and methodically letting me witness one of the nicest aid lead I've seen… here he is about 4 moves from the anchor
