Real bandwidth busters.

good times (and ice) up in maple on friday...plenty of the fresh snow from the previous week has been melting and reforming some of the routes nicely.

jpettijohn cruising up the Running Man

and here he is swingin and clingin to the icy smear of Yellow Rature

good times, good ice

was up in Joes yesterday, Donnorcicle has two giant fractures one about 1/2 way up and the other about 3/4s, they scared us off to CCC Falls, which is super fat right now, except for the last 10 feet of the 3rd pitch, its thin (about 6-10") but well bonded and fun. sorry no pics camera stayed home. Melty Way was missing about 15-20' on the first pitch, Deadbolt and Bushdiver are in and fat. Spear of Fear is non-existent. Wonderwall in Huntington Canyon had some routes that were in, anyone know about the access issues? private? public?
