Hard Climbing is So Cool – Once Upon Belay
https://onceuponbelay.wordpress.com/2015/06/24/hard-climbing-is-so-cool
Capturing my outward wanderings and inner wonderings. Hard Climbing is So Cool. June 24, 2015. June 24, 2015. Left foot to black ledge. Left hand to credit-card-sized crimp. Match right hand to left on credit-card. Jump left, remove both hands and feet from wall. On the way down (to the ground), grab the huge hold. Take a breather, I’ve earned it. 8211; Hard routes are just plain cool. The improbability of the moves and the lack of excess holds demanded 100% of my focus and fostered unique movement.

http://devilslakeoutdoors.blogspot.com/2008/12/devils-lake-to-parfreys-glen-12-13-08.html
Tuesday, December 16, 2008. Devils Lake to Parfrey's Glen 12-13-08. This is one of my favorite training hikes in the area, and it can give you a real sense of doing something - it certainly gave me that sense last weekend. One of my climbing partners, Todd, and I decided to kick off our training for the summer alpine climbing season with a weekend of winter camping and a long hike with light packs from Devils Lake. And back on the Ice Age Trail. We hiked up-and-over the hill from the Quartzite Campground.

http://devilslakeoutdoors.blogspot.com/2009/02/brintons-buttress-2-1-09.html
Wednesday, February 4, 2009. We finally got some warmer weather to climb in during this snow-filled, negative degree, winter. Paul and I were gunning for Saturday, but we both got a cold during the week and felt like crap on Saturday. Sunday's weather still looked great. I woke up on Sunday and said to myself "Screw this crap, I want to climb! I called Paul up at 7:30am and he was down for the climbins. We met up at the Johnson Creek park-and-ride at 10am and sped to The Lake. Again, amazed at how great ...

Climbs2high: August 2014
http://climbs2high.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 2, 2014. The Beartooth Spire and the summit register. The other day Liz and I made the trek into the Beartooths to camp for two nights and climb the spire behind us which the range is named after. It was an amazing adventure into the wilderness, not seeing another soul for over 48 hours, wishing we had more time to walk further, see more and climb higher. Sport Climbing is like Sport Fucking! A lot of fun and not very much commitment! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A 31 year old, climbing a...

Friday, May 30, 2014. Friday, May 23, 2014. Three books went down in 5 days while waiting for "perfect" weather. I finished The Kite Runner,. Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers,. And a book called Adrift. Which was about a fella spending 46 days in a raft drifting across the Atlantic after his sail boat sank on a solo east to west crossing. Mr Peabody did a lot of skiing, I did a lot of reading and resting from the flu the week before. I was a super fun week of falling asleep with layers of clothes on under...
