Title: This Saturday May 21 - The Apocalypse
Post by: mynameismud on May 20, 2011, 03:59:35 PM
I will definitely be at the Pins this Saturday if anyone is interested.  Plan to leave my place around 6 possibly earlier.

Have to leave fairly early (4:30) since I have to be at an event at 7:00

It was a good day for me.  Got a late start and did the usual  Bear Gulch tour.  The usual suspects were there.

I felt good on Cleft, down climbed from the upper ramp on Swallow.

Got a TR on Between a Rock and a Hard Place and Verdict and got both clean.  My first 11's since coming back.  Tried Cosmos but got fully shutdown at the traverse.

Drove back early to see mudworms' performance at the Flint.  Was quite nice.  It would have been better if both dances were a few minutes longer.  Mudworm was front and center in their last piece and did quite well.

Glad I went Tsinghua U. put on a good show.

Noooo! Don't get back into climbing...you are supposed to get back into diving.

Sell your harness and shoes.

perfection of temps, a confusion of climbs.

after a really nice wedding and reception, we had good meal at the Crown and Anchor in Monterey. Really good clam chowder. (not just flavor, but loaded with clams). Today we drove Spreckels rd to abbott rd, and hit the West Side. There were no climbers on the West Side, so we didn't know what to do. Temps were beyond perfect.  Warmth from the sun, just perfectly crisped up by that coastal cool breeze.  Got on Dos Equis with my other half, and had forgotten the last 20' run out held the crux move. Seems like something broke right near the bolt, but the crux hasn't changed just above that. Did the move and brought her up. She fired it, noting that it did seem harder to her since last we were on it. We hung out a bit, then headed back home.

In other news, the annual survey was being handed out. Is it just me, or does this seem to completely bypass feedback from the climbing community (a major user group of the mon) by having this survey handed out in the Month of May when temps are often too warm to climb at Pinnacles, but it is the typical tourist season?

Last, I found a pair of reading glasses at the base of Dos Equis.

Not bad.

Nope, the place to stop for dipers when driving home on 101 is the Target in Gilroy...
