Spoof Proof Roof saw a second ascent today.
Amber took her first leader fall on Get a Grip.
Jesse and his mom hiked to the Frog with Kim.
Kim drank from the spigot back at the picnic tables.
We gave a couple girls from New Zealand a ride to the Visitor center.
I got a tick bite (Kat just got done digging the head out with a needle).

Not a bit surprised that the tick died.

Did the tick have Poison Oak on it? Never know.

I got one once, didn't notice until after I had dropped Mr Mud off. Not fun trying by you-self.

Say Munge aren’t the ticks attracted to bright colors?
Like orange?

Yeah.

Or, in your case, stark white.

Wear green. Blend. Ticks can’t see you.

You're confused.

Munge loves you. But he thinks you're a tick.

Hey T O Double D - how did you like Here's Mud in Your Eye?
I think we saw you on Summer of Mud too  :thumbup: :yesnod: :biggrin:

Just spent 4 days at Pinns with some pretty glorious temps.

Climbed a bunch, hung out with lots of cool folks and did an FA with Brad today.

Pretty sweet  :biggrin: :ihih:

Here's a couple shots from yesterday. It was windy and overcast in the morning while we were working - shivering in a T-shirt and sweatshirt at Pinnacles - not likely to last!

Brad drilled bolt 1 and set me up very nicely for the bolt 2 stance





Me drilling bolt 2





Me on the summit, Brad at the base. 5.8, no stars. Fun day. Good adventure.  :thumbup: :biggrin: :yesnod: :arf:

Ha! That was my first day out there that I actually got to climb real routes. Mud in your Eye was my fav of the day, but we didn’t have time to climb much. I ended up soling stupid things, while Bee patiently coached a climber up Bathing Beuty. That one had a fun start, but we didn’t have any info and went left after the crux, instead of right. Squeaky Clean was a rad 5.6! Easy, but steep. Broke a hold, and almost my ankle, before the first bolt of Hollywood Stars. Last was Mud Diamond, which looked way worse than it turned out to be. It was a cruiser and so fun!

Good stuff out there. Thanks for putting in the work and bolts! Glad y’all had fun too!
