More 2012 climbing

I ended up getting deathly ill for my annual canyoneering trip, so I spent most of the week at home in bed so sorry, no canyon photos this spring.  Here are more climbing photos though, as that seems to be my activity of choice on my days off these days.

The route goes beyond horizontal, you actually climb DOWN, while upside down. Brendan considering his next move.

Climbing at the PTC

Here are some photos of some hard climbing at the Poptire Cave. I wonder how many other caves like this are hiding in the desert waiting to be discovered.

Red Rocks

Finally getting outside to climb again... and actually took some photos! Went to Vegas to climb in 70 degree and sunny weather. Well worth the drive.

My "Blue Steel," look... It's not ready yet.
