Me on the hard traverse into the crux of Men's Final #3 at Beat the Heat 2. I got bumped from advanced into Finals ha ha ha I am a sandbagger.

Yea.....I crimp slopers, its what I do. Me at Beat the Heat 2. Oh and yes I know I make funny faces, laugh away.

Yea that hold hurts. Me at the Beat the Heat 2 competition. A good problem with a tricky bicycle under the roof.

Me just starting to enter the thin crimps of Ace Frehely, V10, Luckily I couldn't make the crux deadpoint 2 moves after this because there was a slug in my hold.

Me ready to finish up Delicate Soul, V7, a beautiful Arete Traverse

Me begining the aesthetic lip traverse Delicate Soul, V7.

Me Bearing down on the sharp crimp sidepull on Something Different V8, Hueco Tanks. No photoshop, just crazy lighting and skill of photographer Robert Miramontes.

A fun easy warm called "Classic" up on a nice sunny hill in Pawtuckaway NH. The downclimb is more anoying.

Me Flashing the V6/7 Atlas at Pawtuckaway. It is a good name except Atalas was naked and had alot of facial hair.

Here me trying the V10 Blaow and coming annoyingly close in 5 minutes before I tried stupid beta and blew my tip. I will return later with a vengence.

Me sticking the one move wonder V7/8 Anasazi, in Pawtuckaway. Good rock in an awesome setting.

Me coming off an atempt of Blaow at Pawtuckaway.

Me trying my luck on Even Lovely at the Sleepy Hollow area, Trapps Boulders. I needed more than luck though.

Me warming up early in the morning on an unnnamed problem on the Boxcar boulder. Nice slopers although short.

Me hitting the short deadpoint right before the crux Dyno on the Art of Nothing, V8 at the Gunks. One of my favorite problems in a beautiful setting, very Squamish like.

Me on the very sandbagged(I think) Gill's Egg. A very strange type of dyno problem.

Me trying to get over the slopey lip of Boz V9 at Governor's Stable. Fun Problem.

Keeping the balance on the high right foot(just a little below my right hand) on Pimp Smack a short V6.

This is Mantel in a Haystack at NorthWest Branch MD. I think it ranks up there with the most pathetic problems ever established. I got the FA of course because I am a loser and live in MD.

Me trying to latch the Dyno on Gloria on North Mountain Hueco.

Here is some tall British guy (sorry don't know his name) trying the last commiting move on Jingus Bells V5/5.12, it is hard to tell but this problem is actually real highball, the boulder behind is a big slab. He is about 20 something feet off the deck.

Andrea trying to figure out the way up the Micro Crimp Slab Nachoman V9 on North Mountain Hueco Tanks.
