Desert Solitude

I was fortunate last week to be able to spend a few days in the Utah desert with some good friends to enjoy the incredible climbing and vast beauty known as Indian Creek.

Here are some of my favorite shots from the trip.

I awoke to this one morning and ran up to the top of the hill to capture this shot.


Steven on "Camping under the Influence" 5.12 Second Meat Wall.


Usual night at creek pasture.


Still recovering from a broken back, Chick runs a lap on Broken Brain 5.12.


Steven sending Broken Brain 5.12, first go of the day!


Another beautiful sunset... one of the many reasons I keep coming back.

Rumble in da The Ghetto, Flatirons style.

The weather continues to be just fantastic here in Colorado making for great days in the outdoors. Me and my friend Shumin climbed a bit in Eldorado Canyon Friday afternoon in the roof route area. We started on the classic Rosy Crucifixion and finished on some of shorter roof routes down below. Twas a tad bit warm....

I get a call late that night from my friend Matt telling me that he and his "crew" were planning on going up into the Flatirons to do some bouldering in an area called the "Ghetto" and asked if I wanted to join them. I said sure because I figured it would be a good chance to snap some photos of them and do a little bouldering myself.

John "JD" Dunn. One of the founding fathers of the Ghetto establishing many of the problems.
