Cheers fellers.

Which one is that?
We did Robinson, and NW ridge of T-bolt. On the ridge also signed a register of some unnamed peak. Were 1st to sign this year. It was really awesome. Descended underhill coloir (as I remember). The area is awesome, everthing looks great. So many other peaks omg, it was like visiting Vatican.


Looks great

Dude, be careful what you wish for -- for these dudes any kind of paradise implies some combination of poison oak, wide cracks and/or volcanic choss :)

Just need a once a year obscure hint Ding. I'll find it eventually. :)

Thought I had it a year or so ago. But can't find the photo anymore.

Trial and error is the best kind of hunting. :)

1) YOUR FAVORITE CLIMB? and WHY?
Peak that challenged you physically, mentally, technically, or all of the above. You feel it is the best that you have done to challenge your body and mind.

2) YOUR GOAL? and WHY?
Mountain or route you really want to do at some point in the future. It should stand out by it's challenge or beauty.

BONUS question: lake with awesome bass fishing and llamas walking around? or just one


1) Favorite = North East Buttress of North Pal. Way fun, no picnic to hump the gear up to, great exposure, awesome peak.

2) Goal = Kinda mundane, but I still want to get all 15 of the Cali 14ners.

Bonus = Hmmm.... might want to check the re-watered lower Owens river. I hear they's bass all in they waters!

Hey Chief... nice shot of the Doors. (NE Butt = line just to the left between the gray and orange rock.)
