Jeff throws me a spot during one of my first visits to this area. Now we climb there after the sun goes down to beat the heat.

This is my first summit of Owl Rock, in Moab, UT. I was very glad that I brought hexes with me, because cams sure felt shady, and I could see old skate lines from cams that pulled out.

I took this picture to give a sense of feel for the rock at boxcar. This is the biggest conglomerate I have ever seen.

This was a cool problem that I found at Valley of Fire State Park. There was tons of stuff to climb around the park. Just our campsite alone had 8-10 good problems at it . Just remember not to use white chalk on the red stone! We found that the fine red sand works nearly as well as chalk anyway.

This was one of the cool problems near our campsite at the Vally of Fire State Park. The formations in the rock make for great frames!

This is my buddy Jeff getting a first ascent on a local project at stoney ridge. It was worked on toprope, but would propably go free as a highball boulder problem.

The crux of this problem is getting the pad to stay in the same orbital path as the asteroid. We think he sent the problem, but we were not sure which side was the top. Keep in mind he had to hold his breath the whole time, and it was very cold (about -272.9 degrees celcius). Jeff will do anything for a good photo shoot!

This is Kim Sismour begining to crank into the layback on stumpcrack. This is what we consider the crux, the route gets easier once you get past this 6 foot vertical crack.

This climb was very loose and dirty, but we had a lot of fun. We might consider cleaning this area up and setting a few routes here regularly. Make sure the belayer is standing in a safe spot... not below the climber!

I sent my C4's in to Yates to have them sew 18" slings on them. They are shown tripled in this pic. The far left is a regular C4 for reference.
