Minnesotan Skin: February 2009
http://minnesotaskin.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 10, 2009. Between Frost and Melt Water. On a beautiful saturday @ 36 some degrees, Chris(Hirsch), Eric, Neil, Trinh and I went, um, sightseeing I guess. We had aspirations to climb on some rock that is only workable when the St. Croix river is frozen. We started in Franconia, just down stream from Taylors Falls. Damn I want to buy that Scandinavian Chalete! Josh Helke is supposedly the first ascender of the problem that works from the back of the cave straight out the edge of the roof.

Friday, October 17, 2008. Governor Dodge State Park.a long, long time ago. Once, a long, long time ago.last Labor Day weekend.in a state park.in Wisconsin.named after a Governor.whos name was Dodge.and there was sandstone.Yes, there was sandstone. We started out on the B2 bluff, through an occupied and unfriendly campsite, (I recommend estabishing a path NOT through the campsite, possibly left of the outhouse.). This is Sandstone Violence that can be seen with less sun/shade contrast on Neil's blog.

Minnesotan Skin: August 2008
http://minnesotaskin.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 7, 2008. Kris and Pi had been throwing the idea around about adding a cave to one side of the wall.Kris put it together in under a week, with less than 24 hours of time spent on it. And yet it's still over built and painfully fun! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Climber, ranter, dog lover. View my complete profile.

Wednesday, March 26, 2008. Death to Minnesota Winters! Every one here knows how this snow is getting pretty damn tiresome! The yard is just over 1/2 melted and tomorrow we get MORE SNOW? Well, to take everyone's mind off of it I'm posting an about interesting similarity I've noticed between my husband Kris and a particular muppet.take a look for yourself! Then Sam the Eagle. Kris isn't so patriotic though. Thursday, March 6, 2008. Real Boulders, Fer Realz! Build calluses, don't sand them off on plastic!

Minnesotan Skin: May 2008
http://minnesotaskin.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 22, 2008. I got to ride in Nic's new Yaris, much to the chagrin of Pi, who road in Chris Hirsch's Escort. You can fit 2 pads in a Yaris with the back seat up, and 4-5 with the back seats down. And we got 35 mpg going 75 the whole way. On a four hour drive in tandem, things can get silly. Fruit bombing one another's cars entertained us for the last two hours of the drive and had our faces aching from laughter. Here's my second video I've made today with iMovie.sweet. But I still, like always...

Minnesotan Skin: Back in Bishop Again
http://minnesotaskin.blogspot.com/2008/12/back-in-bishop-again.html
Monday, December 22, 2008. Back in Bishop Again. We started out on the Ironman, to try to start building skin and wake up the muscles. After we decided it was just too hot sitting under that highly reflective oblong rock slice, we walked down to the Tut boulder. Not sure of the separation of holds between Funky Tut and King Tut, we did some fun combination of both. I fell at the same spot again and again, just like last year. However, some new beta from Nic the next day made me get super optimistic!

Minnesotan Skin: God Damn!
http://minnesotaskin.blogspot.com/2008/12/god-damn.html
Sunday, December 28, 2008. Eric, Trinh and Mike showed up a few days ago. I spent 1 day in the Happies with them before my curse returned. Kris just left to drive Mike back down to Vegas to fly home. Joel and Erin are headed back up to the happies today with our dogs. Hopefully that's not too much for them. Crazy has totally warmed up to Joel, at last! The whole time Erin lived with us she cowarded away from him. A few apple cores and some other treats have fixed that! Take it easy and get well! January ...

Wednesday, February 13, 2008. Old vid from Hueco last year. I found this video on my harddrive.thought I'd post it, a bit late! This is Nic O.O.O-something-er-other on Accupressure behind the now defunct Mushroom boulder. Goes at an 8. I think some one in CO FAed this. Or did Kris get the FA? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
