Brione



Yesterday we hit up Brione. It was wet, and rained on and off, but was the driest of the areas. This place is amazing, it is rapidly becoming my favorite area. Sick boulders, great rock, unbelievable setting, wether it's climbing right next to the river or up in the meadow (granted there are some cow pies here) it is AMAZING. One of the best locations I can think of to warm up, at all levels. Nice high slab/face, aretes, all moderate, steep jug hauls, all while being surrounded by mountains, meadow, and old houses.

Ryan Sewall has joined us from Texas. He's a strong lad, and quickly hooked up the moves on The Cellar Door. Paul nabbed the guessed second ascent of it. Dosage III doesn't do this problem justice, both in it's beauty and scariness. WERD. Here are a couple of pics, more vid to come in a few days.

Rest day today, and then back to climbing tomorrow. Psyched to have a camera again!
