FRESH.

A little birdy told me where I might find some fresh rocks. Decided to make a little trip with the family over thanksgiving break. The spot may haz potential for teh boulders, but trad lines are the most obvious. Due to time constraints I was only able to see a fraction of the area and I was unable to access the big blocs scoped from top. Could be super rad....could also be chossgarglingturdburgl0rrz. Hopefully the former. We shall see, must go back soon.   :)

Foggy ride up the mountain

Colorado

Just got back from the Colorado with Mark. Hit up Mt.Evans, area A and Lincoln Lake, and also checked out some of RMNP, seeing Moraine Park, and Chaos canyon. Rock quality is high, but not terribly unique. Most problems were a variation on crimp ladders and/or edges. There is a distinct dearth of problems in the V4-V8 range, and areas don't tend to be very concentrated. Minimum two mile approaches seem to be the norm, with an accompanying elevation change of 1500 feet. Most of the climbing we did was at an altitude of 10.500-12.000 feet. Of course there were some very nice lines but in summary: Colorado, over-hyped.

With that enjoy some videos, and there's a second raw vid of Time Line to give you an idea of size. Gettin' psyched to shralp this season! Woot woot!

dabtronics bouldering kit 1.0

Meanwhile, in Yosemite...

The waterfalls are flowing...

I got in a day in the Valley yesterday, bouldering in the morning, and crack climbing in the afternoon. Above is No Holds Barred (V7), a classic highball on the Sentinel boulder. This is about as high as I got, and the business is really a burly dyno to the lip, about 6 feet above my hands...

Christine, who I was climbing with, found a novel way to deal with the height-dependent campus start of a V5 around the corner...

I'll be back in NYC from May 5-12. Thinking about trying to get to the Gunks, or at least the place we go on Tuesdays...

Big Love,

Andy

Switzerland Part I

Well it's been a long time coming, and it's perhaps a bit emo. Whatever. Here's part I of a two part series about shralping the gnar in Switzerland. Enjoy.

Also, methinks mebbe there needs to be a dabtronics vimeo pro account so we can have these bad boys in high quality.
