I know it has been a minute but, it has been crazy times. After David, Craig and I left NC, they headed to LRC in Chatty, and I went home. I had an absolute blast, hanging out with the folks, getting to see both my sisters, reading Sirs books, and climbing all over Alabama. I lost a cam at Steele, my ego at FAR(local kids are getting strong), skin at HP40, and some chedder at the bars! All worth it if you ask me. After long debate, and much consideration I packed my gear, sold a car, and moved to Asheville, NC. It was a hard desicion to take a break from the trip, but it turned out to be the right call. While David and Craig crush V10 at Hueco and Bishop, I'll get my multi pitch feet wet on some of the tallest, most runout and scariest crags the East coast has to offer. A rotator cuff injury at the local gym, and some extremely cold weather has the bouldering sidelined for now, but soon it will be "on like a chicken bone!" As for the gym it ain't no FAR, every time I go to climbax it makes me miss First Ave, lets just say there are a quarter of the problems, half the quality, greasy holds and it is more expensive?!?!?! But the locals are great, the beer is the best I've had anywhere, and the amount of climbing is intense. Here are a few pictures from the last 2 months, please forgive the quality, I don't have Craig skills......yet. Much love.
After moving to Asheville, I was fortunate enough to get a opportunity to climb some ice. It was t-shirt weather and the ice was melting fast. This all made for great climbing, unexpected falls, and the scary sound of a 100lbs of ice falling around you! Special thanks to Matt and Tanner fo showing me the ropes and letting me borrow a helmet.
Little River Canyon...Lizard Wall. It rained all day but not on us!
