At the end of last summer, Chris and I decided that our goal in the park this season would be to climb Pervertical Sanctuary on the Diamond on Long’s Peak. Although we often climb harder at the crags, the climbing on the Diamond is all above 13k feet, making things quite a bit more [...]

Straight up the….

buttress. On Saturday, Chris and I climbed the Flying Buttress on Mt. Meeker. Even though this route gets tons of stars on the internet and in the guidebooks, it doesnt seem super popular. I really can’t imagine why. The rock is perfect and the climbing is consistently interesting and occasionally outstanding [...]

A Little Breakfast Alpinism
June 10th, 2010 · No Comments
The day before we left CO for the warm beaches of CA and the soaking wet PNW, Joe, Chris and I managed to get out for a little prework climbing in the park. The goal was simply to get out and climb a popular easy ice climb, the Martha Couloir, in RMNP, then make [...]

One of the joys of netflix is the ability to recapture your youth watch old tv shows. Yesterday, we fired up the pilot episode for MacGyver. In addition to mind blowing swiss army knife skills, apparently Mac was also a great climber:
Not sure how the hammer comes in to play for the top [...]

Lincoln Falls

Was hoping to climb an alpine route with my day off yesterday, but at the last minute, Blake got a job so we had to replan. Lincoln Falls seemed like the best bet for a quick day of ice climbing, while allowing Blake to get back in time for his first day. Overnight [...]

Hallet Peak – Love Route
September 1st, 2009 · No Comments
Chris, Becky and I climbed the Love Route on Hallet Peak on Sunday. The weather forecast was pretty horrible, but the great thing about CO is that even on the worst of forecasts, the mornings always seem to dawn clear. The downside to this is that we’d have to leave Boulder at 3:30 [...]

2nd Flatiron – Freeway
September 1st, 2009 · 1 Comment
On Saturday, Sam and I climbed the freeway route on the 2nd flatiron. This was a pretty big accomplishment for Sam. Aside from our short climb of the first flatironette a few weeks ago, most other attempts to get sam more than 100′ off the ground had resulted in a bit of panic. [...]
