this is a fun little problem in the designated bouldering area of the quarries. Its not steep at all, but this is just the way the pictures comes up.

nice thin ice in st. Cloud

This is the frog that lives on this problem. It's an awesome problem that we haven't freed yet... hence the name. This frog is crazy, he jumped of the top of the problem and LIVED! That would be like one of us jumping from half way up El Cap. He likes to be in this finger crack a lot. He's also our mascot.

My friend took this picture of me when I was in the final moves of this bouldering problem. It's a really fun crack with a stump in it. About a 5.9. My left hand is on that edge at the end. Right hand is jammin.

This is a sweet crack in quarry park. There is a tree stump behind his right heel. The start is on the left side of the crack to avoid the stump and the crux is a pivot to the right side of the crack and then jamming your left hand. From there it's pretty easy, there's a crimper at the top that helps at the end. It's about a 5.9. It's a really fun route. It's fun to try and eliminate holds to make it harder.

First day outside of the gym.
