We spent a day climbing at the spires with our new found friends Mitch and Jesse (also from NY!). We climbed opposing spires and were able to grab some great photos of one another.

After a day of climbing in the sun on the spires, Nyssa and I retreated to the shade of Los Lobos Canyon and enjoyed some excellent climbing on Will the Wolf Survive (5.10b).

Ok, I know I asked for new pics, but these give me little weird things in my stomach! Too high!!

ReplyDeleteSiiiiiiiick photos dude. Also congratulations on the big guy. What are the big goals for the rest of the trip? Looks like I'm staying here for the rest of the winter. I did start work on my truck and cap. It's starting to look good.
