Masterful Photoshop work J.C. The hole in the knee of my pants looks just like it was there in the original photo.

Nice try. I couldn't photoshop that even if I wanted to.

That must have been during your arboreal Pinnacles phase Brad.

Actually for those interested - Brad and Mucci were working on rebolting Arch Up the Center.


Here's Mucci

I talked to the NPS administrators, they said it will be "Mullet Day". ;)

You know, I didn't really believe you had an actual mullet in your youth until seeing these photos.

I assume you've seen some of the photos I have of Munge with long hair? It's been so long that I can't really imagine him with long hair any more.

And for God sake, having the bravery, the absolute courage to post photos like that of yourself. One can start to understand where you get the guts to do run-out stance bolting....

Yes but I still have a pair of those 5.10 shoes and amazingly they are not dry rotted.
I even did some of my early Pinns leads in them but sadly without a mullet :smilewinkgrin:

Jim and I are about to leave (he's just finishing breakfast).

He suggested two more records he'd like to see tallied up:

-  Who's done the most total vertical feet of first ascents at Pinnacles (that one sounds interesting); and

-  Who's placed the most bolts on lead at Pinns (short-changes the re-bolters to some degree, in my opinion).
