The Broach - possibly Ship's steepest 5.11, sees very few female ascents.

Lee Carter figuring out the beta during the first ascent of Lost Sailor at Shiprock. Theres not really any hard moves on this thing. The protection can be a bit tricky and itsybitsy, but keep moving and its quite enjoyable. This corner is rarely dry, so if you happen to find it dry...do youself a favor and hop on it.

Christian is enjoying easy climbing on a cold/windy day in the high country. You can say he has it dialed.

This is me while on Lost at Sea. We set up a toprope for it because we have no trad gear but I had no falls and its a cool route.

I had already lead the route so I thought it would be a good idea to make it a bit harder...the roof, if you want to call it that, is really fun to pull

Steve B leading Harpoon (10a) at Ship Rock, NC.

Here's a pic of me TR'ing The Anquish of Captain Bligh (11c). What you don't see is me flailing before and after. Taken by Steve B. Ship Rock, NC

Here's a pic of me leading Boardwalk (5.8) taken by Stephanie B. I linked both pitches and trailed a line but didn't pay enough attention to the rope drag. Made the last 10 feet very difficult...lesson learned. Ship Rock, NC

Here's another pic of me leading Boardwalk (5.8). The pictures not that great but I love the exposure. Taken by Stephanie B. Ship Rock, NC

Josh getting off Hindu Kush Direct. Direct is definitely the way to go: way cooler moves and less of that damn traverse. April 2005.

Dylan Hettinger (glyrocks) making sure to stay calm on the 2nd ascent of Head Control.

Josh on the FA of Head Control. About 5.8 with gear you could hang a bus on and exposure that'll make you cry. (Apparently it wasn't an FA after all. Whatever hatas.) April 2005. p.s. Yea, the photo sucks, was actually paying more attention to belaying.

Josh taking a short fall off the first pitch of BOG Man. April 2005.

Photo taken by Pat Goodman. Gumfighter (11d mixed) is a classic route, with everything on it.

Harpoon is the splitter at Ship Rock. Most folks probably tr or lead this route.

This is Adam climbing Coma (13+??) I was belaying with the camera beside me on a time delay. Very steep route with almost more horizontal feet gained than vertical.

Edge of a Dream as the sun sets. Resolution isn't so great, but the original looks good and it's an excellent route. 12.18.04.
