Here are screen grabs from just a few of the problems we’ve shot. I’ll try to edit/compress a little teaser before we leave and before Rob does the main edit. Movie should be almost 30 mins long with all the problems we’ve shot.
Il Était une Fois
Golden Virginia and Ray of Light (I did not put that tick mark on the wall BTW)
Jason off and on Hole in One and me on Black Velvet
You Say Party, I Say Die
(Berni doesn’t want anyone to know this but, when he did the FA there was NO WATER IN THE HUECO!!!)
In Between Dreams and Phil on Steakhouse
Ghost in the Darkness and Shosholoza
Leap of Faith
El Corazon
Amandala
It’s been really hot here for the last ten days or so and haven’t been climbing that much, but the forecast says it’s going back down for the last week of our trip so hopefully I can finish up sky! I’ve done the first move about ten times and the second move maybe 15, but the second move is SO hard after doing the first, especially on days where it’s 70 degrees in shade which it has been for the last two weeks. And hopefully Jason can do Pinotage and hopefully Lisa can do a 7b+. Brian Antheunisse, Scott Cory, Dave Wetmore and Rod D’Anastasio are here, ready to grip it and rip it for the next month (or two). It’s nice to have a solid crew to roll with. May the temps cool, may clouds cover the sun and may our calloused fingertips latch onto the holds on our respective projects perfectly again and again until we’re standing on top of all the freaken boulders in rockalnds laughing and hollering before we go get crunk at the campground bar!!! ONE MORE WEEK!
What beautiful rock.
Good luck on Sky!!
