Leading the third pitch of the Great Arch on Stone Mountain on a beautiful late September day.

This is from my Philmont Trek in 1999. Mt. Baldy is 12,441'. This happens to be my highest point ever! We had summited two days prior to this. I took this while we were resting in this beautiful meadow and had found that neat foreground. Taken with a disposable Kodak Advantix camera. Decent pic given the camera and the harsh noon light.

Thats me leading Footloose and Finger Free (5.9) at Logtown. Its a shorter 4 bolt w/ shuts climb. Its a pretty easy climb, I think I flashed it. Good way to learn on a little harder moderate route.

Me on Laid Back (10b) at the crux. Good route with an easy start and fun crux... just watch out for rappelers raining down on yinz!

Me bouldering on Ross in between sending routes.

A fun little problem at the Mills, "Pancake". Requires quite a reach, but not too hard; even I can do it!

In Feb of 2003 I summited Mt. Marcy (New York's highest pt.) in a full blown Nor'easter. Whiteout conditions and high winds along with tons of snow made this a true alpine experience - lots of fun!! Thats me gettin' hammered by the wind and snow at treeline somewhere on that hill!
