This is the finished product. I changed the small roof into a 25 deg wall. I also took down all of the holds and just put up problems, color coded. So far I have 35 problems ranging from 1-5. (using The Spot Gyms system) I also took off the campus board, cuz it was just homemade and kept tearing the piss out of my fingers. Cheers

The latest additions...

Dragon fire arete V4/5

I found this to be a bit tricky. There are a couple of "bump" holds on your way to the good stuff at the top, but I was just too wiped out to get there. I used a heel hook that seemed to work very well for some stability.

Fun problem at B.E.M. that took me maybe 5-7 goes. The people I was with said it was graded soft-like it should be a 4. I dunno, it is a very fun problem.

Bouldering at Pallisades Kepler S.P. I'm not sure which route this is; the guide book is way fuzzy. any suggestions? I'd call it a V1 cuz of the height and weird top out, but thats just me.

Successful boulder problem on the Suzuki boulder in RMNP. I think it was a V2, but we weren't sure if we were on the right problem. It was beautiful.

My newest addition to the home wall

Yet another pic of my garage. I just added a fist crack, on the left. The right crack is a handjam. Great fun.

Just a different view of the roof section. The bike is for size reference.

This is my garage. Solon, Iowa doesn't have a lot of rock around. I improvise...

On our way to Notchtop mountain.
