Meeting and climbing with Riley Wyna earlier this week was great, he suggested slab and off we went. The agenda was:

-Harry Daley 5.8
-Green Dragon 5.11b

and we filled Tuesday up with a long jaunt all the way to the Oasis via Goodrich Pinnacle.

Great climbing with a great guy. Thanks Riley!

So cool to see pictures of people climbing with the heel of their hands down or at least on the rock. Hey, you guys aren't gym climbers, are you?

Nice work Kalen !

I really enjoy Harry Daley. In fact we did it the same day -- as I was walking down from there in the early afternoon I looked up and probably saw you guys.

Ya got my imagination going .. I've thought about those higher routes on the Apron off and on for a while ..
