Holiday fun

I was thinking Humping Lizards could use a bolt right about where John is climbing in that picture. Is that where a bolt was added?  If not I might go back and add one there. I thought that spot had the worst fall potential.

Good shot of Brian on Shades of Jade, the one where he looks like he is clipping.

I like that shot of Brian too.   Summiting that formation definitely demands some time for taking in the view.  Fantastic!

Good pics . I smiled at the one of only an arm.

That seemed to be Brad's favorite too.
My facial expression in the next one is certainly one of joy! What a curmudgeon

Curmudgeon? I thought that was your "goddamn Clink drilled the bolt too high" look?

Nope. Sorry but my grandma could drill a bolt there. I had to keep Noal's flavor.

Here is a revised shot showing the first of two bolts I added - with your permission of course Mud





And here is a photo topo showing the two bolt midway belay, both added lead bolts on pitch 2 and the two bolt top anchor.
The top anchor is setup to rappel over the much shorter backside. The route is still very "necky" and will retain an R rating.

Nope. Every bolt on that route is "just right". I've been perfecting that scowl for years

I understand. Do me a favor on this subject; never mention my name to Vicki or Tricia in any sentence that also uses the word "scowl."
