Yep. Mike asked me to write something and I let Kat read it before I sent it to him.

Thanks guys!  I thought it was pretty cool when Mike asked if they could do a story about me.  I'm slowly working my way to the next 100 leads ... ;D

I led some old, established climbs with Brad on Friday (Salathe's Sliver, Nelson's Needle).
I told him I couldn't remember the last time I led 3 new routes in a day at Pinns.
It usually takes 2 or 3 days to get one new route since it seems like all we do these days is establish new stuff.

It was pretty cool to go back in time and get on these old scary climbs.

A note to self is always carry offset aliens when climbing these old routes.
There were some perfect piton scars that I could have used to steady my nerves.  :yesnod: :thumbup: :yikes: :ihih:

 It is surprising on how much depth there is to that area. Plenty of PO to boot.

I just realized that I was at Pinns 6 days in a row last week.
I think that is a record for me  :biggrin:

You got an addiction, bub. Take two weeks in Moab, and call me in the morning. ;)

Found this while cleaning out files yesterday.
The date and fee paid are very faint but if you look close they are 12-31 (94 not shown) and 4.00 dollars  :biggrin:

Here is the back of the Pinnacles entry slip. We went in the west side and hiked to the High Peaks and across the Steep and Narrow. I remember seeing some bright colored webbing on Photographer's Delight and thinking that was insane.

Here is something for the archives. This is a sketch that one of my fellow team members at Toyota made.
We were working on the body quality team at the time. Can you guess which one is me?
Look close at some of the finer details for added laughs.

I re-scanned the park pass using a different technique and now you can see the date and fee paid. :thumbup:

They forgot to mention....go slow for the squirrels!

Yes, after handing the nice ranger my $4, he would always say...Please go slow for the squirrels.

Ahh, the good old days at the Monument...back when the guide was outdated and you got suckered into a hard ass route when you thought it was Portent...
Someboady help me post up a picture of this old park map...complete with 3 campgrounds.
