My back hurt in the morning - but I climbed anyway - taking it easy - I did a roof problem - and it cracked three times - each time, it was like someone was cutting a cord of pain - it was great! I actually tried a problem that was my style - and crushed it - it was the grade equivalent of Birthday Boulder at the Mills...I swear - it felt just as hard as the V2 Warm-Up - but that's how Hueco is...the higher the grade, the easier it is for the grade...so yah - I'd hate to be someone climbing at V0-V3 - You're screwed!
Nicole Hanson, a Friksn athlete rolled in last night - she's here for a week or two - not sure - gonna try and get out some with her and take pics - though the park has been ridiculously busy - I'm SUPER glad I have North Mountain passes....
It was cold again this morning - My water was frozen solid - I was warm of course, I have two sleeping bags - a synthetic and a down - I keep the down on the inside (My grandma bought me that down sleeping bag several years ago - Thanks GMA!)
I've been working on an article - not sure if it'll go - but I think it will - its about full time climbers and their "rigs" like - their van's/campers and how they have them set-up - MAN - I really want to drop 40K and get one myself! I could totally run a video production out of one...most of them are 100 percent solar powered...though I think running a Quad Core Mac might tax the solar panels a bit yah? =)
I ran into a group from Colorado - THEY WERE CRUSHING - Here is a pic of Flannery Nemirow on Free Willey - a crimpy steep V9/V10.
Just hanging out in the coffee shop - today is my day out of the park....gonna try and finish up Laura's wedding, My photo submission for the NRG Guidebook, and another article I'm working on ...oh and I still need to make an album for the RRG...and my wedding stuff....
Ahhh....a beautiful day...

PS thanks for the update on Flannery's name - I misread her name on the model release
