Asheville, North Carolina
A few last summer days in Asheville. Feels like home these days as much as any place does.
Montana Rock Climbing
We aren’t in sandstone country anymore. Single and multi-pitch climbing near Missoula and Bozeman.
It was lovely to be back in one of my favorite states climbing with some of my favorite people.
La Sal Climbing
Pictures from a few of my last days in Moab. We spent a couple of nights camping and a couple days climbing in the La Sal Mountains. I had been staring at them for weeks and it was grand to see an extremely different side to Moab. Lots of green and the rock was Dakota Sandstone with colors and textures all its own. A magical place to visit in the spring.
Day Canyon Climbing
A lovely day. It was quite warm but we chased the shade and stayed comfortable.
Utah Paddlin’, Bikin’, and Climbin’
A 4 day stretch including 2 days of rock climbing at Indian Creek and Wall Street. We did something like 13 routes in those 2 days, mostly in the upper 5.10 range and climbs I had never done before. I didn’t weight the rope once. I was pretty pleased with myself.
Hidden Valley
Spent the better part of an afternoon hiking right outside of Moab. I ran into a local at the trailhead who gave me directions where to locate some petroglyphs.
San Francisco with the Fam
Spent a week with my wonderful family. Walking has long been a favorite activity of ours.
Lunch at the Met
Back in December Rebecca and I had an amazing meal at the Metropolitan Museum of Art thanks to Asheville native Jason Huang.
