My Thoughts...



Risk is essential.
There is no growth or inspiration in staying within what is safe and comfortable.

Not all who wander are lost

Clear Creek Canyon

Hello All!

Just a quick update. I went sport climbing yesterday and today in Clear Creek Canyon with a couple guys I met bouldering. Beautiful area and great climbing. The wall runs right along Clear Creek through this Gorge. Amazing. Not much else to say but here are some pictures. OH, I flashed an 11d slab climb called Road Kill! Very exciting! The end was pretty dicey, see picture and description.

Looking down at Clear Creek 150 feet from the top of "5th of July"
Halfway mark of the picture you'll see a little bolt. Then look where the rope stops. That was the last bolt. Lovely 20 foot runout.
