Too cold!

Great line in the middle of the 420's. 3rd try today after a quick session two years ago in the summer. Prime conditions!

Frozen hands.

First try after warming up on the 7b

Started crouched on the actual start holds? low end 7c+ this way but certainly easier if you start with the hold of black lung. Good rock!

Nice addition from Emerson

7C+ but more difficult than the others I tried. Close to flash but fell due to frozen hands...

Close to Flash again but I used the wrong beta at the top... Good finish to the trip after defeat on black lung. Long day...

Last day of climbing... wish I had better luck on the 8b's..

Close to flash then I was lost on the 2nd try...incredible!

Sent during the roctrip just before mel!

Nice connection with a unique style!

Very nice!

Cool and powerful roof climbing. Almost flashed it but i took the wrong beta at the end. It could have destroyed my knee...

6th ascent. Major respect to Tommy for opening this route. A true technical test piece. Comparable to Biography in my opinion but I am also new to this granite style. Amazing route!

First try, a different finish to Aslan. 3rd ascent, i think.

The power endurance test piece of RMNP. First try today in the crisp conditions after many attempts in the summer. Fall has arrived!

Of mice and men looks sick! Next time...

close to onsight..

Poorly/Mainly chipped Basically onsite but I have done the last moves on Sonic Youth just before. Cool new route! Originally 8b+ but I think its more 8a+...

cool zone!

Poorly/Mainly chipped spanish style traversing line ..

Poorly/Mainly chipped SO close to onsite! I fell at the last moves because I rushed a move. Probably more 8b...

Fell off the top out on the flash. Damn snow!

3rd ascent. Cool to have it all come together. Good effort by all. One of the best roofs in Colorado!

cool black rock! unfortunately the new beta is quite sharp.

Very nice! A kneebar and an arete

2nd ascent? Just pulled on and found a crunk sequence. A cool boulder near both sides of the spectrum that should be climbed on more...

Sick compression boulder! Didn't expect anything, just pulled on and went for it

2nd after Jimmy. Sick new mini boulder. Psyched on the GAME!

dos estrellas!

hmm. pretty soft but it was a little desperate and a mind freak on the top out. scary. starting to feel back in the game! The game looks sick!

compression. V10?

first tried back in '05. Good times in the sun!

quite a strange problem. Good rock though. Climbed it twice

Started in the original holds as Nalle did. Wether or not this changes the grade it was as the ascent I witnessed, however the higher start seems to be more logical. Good problem none the less! Wish I had more time in the Tankzzz

Brandon Amos is famous !!

really good problem

Almost flashed then my foot slipped. Cool moves!

Poorly/Mainly chipped freezing cold today! great line except a couple holds in the middle. 3rd ascent. Maybe more 8c?

was trying the original raw dog until I broke a hold. After a while I found some new beta and climbed straight up. Amazing new tension beta! The OG problem could be 8b+ now...

one of the best boulders...ever! Felt impossible at first and then everything came together. Very psyched. Last day in Wolverine land....end of an ERA! Should be noted that Dave, Daniel and Chris climbed this boulder in the heat of the summer! thus, significantly harder...

cuatro estrellas!

but felt hard for me! cuz im a bit shorter... Ironically, I used Dave's long-fellow beta. first try today with the headlamp. Classic.

actually saw a honey badger today.. the rarest!

amazing! This has always been a huge challenge for me, until today, when the cold winds of fall swept through the valley. I used a crunk sequence but I like!

amazing! Not exactly sure on the grade but I don't think it's 8A+?? None the less, this one is quite nice, technical and powerful. Classic.

amazing! Short yet unique... I liked it a lot! Close on the flash until I broke a hold. I must be getting fat...Felt harder than the Exfoliator. 3rd one today!

Psyched to be back in wolvo land!

YES! So psyched! Definitely the coolest boulder we found so far and could be one of my hardest! On top of serra da piedade, huge roof with a light and stairs. Thanks to the Brazilian crew for hooking up the ride!

cool boulder. Just one heinous move off of a small crimp then swing! Climbed at probably 2 in the morning and found it quite hard!

never trust a melissa in Brazil! SO ghetto! cool catuluniansportclimbingesque-bloc.

iron rock climbing... great pogo move on rock!

after the stand ...

was psyched to try this boulder since I arrived in Brazil. Warmed up and sent in 30 minutes. Completely surprised! Incredible power boulder! very well done Felipe. Now, on to the projects!

flashed the flash.. haha. very cool boulder!

very good! respect to Bele's work on opening this boulder. 3rd try in the cooler temps.. almost didn't have it but freak improvisation beta was created. psyched for the projects now!

the shit down start.. classic! psyched to flash!

really small holds... Need a rest day and some acai!

checked out the moves and sent first try from the start. Amazing beach side bouldering-had to watch out for rouge waves! Itaipava and BBQ at the casa soon after!

good intro to Sao Bento. psyched for the projects!

couer de lion dos! Roof climbing at its finest. Failed with the pocket and discovered a new sequence.. 2nd ascent after Felipe with the power of the people!

The tension addition. Tried harder than I have in a long time! Great first day in Brazil!

name says it all

cinco estrellas !

3rd ascent after Dave! very cool roof with a tough crux. high tension. 2 days...psyched!

A Dave G. classic! figured out the moves in the sun and sent 2nd try...tried it briefly in the past. feeling back in the game!

2 days. With Voges beta! The new classic, very psyched

1st day back in rmnp! very cool arete, very uncomfortable under cut. sippin on booze in the house of blues

a very nice route for first try friday! Psyched to climb in Margalef again

crazy inverted roof climbing! muy interesante! Bien! 3rd try and first 8b+ in a long time ... which could mean the hand is healthy again!

an old Salas route... 4 chapas !

"Killed it, broke it's neck" , Dani climbed this without shoes ! ha ha ha !! a muerte in the freezing cold, ayyyeeeee

fell off the last move ... ayyyyeeee. amazing route! 8b+/c venga

Amazing route on good rock. nice onsite for adam. first try friday! psyche is high now that catalunya is dry!

The day after i was suppose to leave. Props to Kilian for sending and Dani for opening! topped it out!

amazing pocket climbing..really hard for 8c. I think 8c+ is better as others seems to think the same.. the standards have changed though, especially here. Brutal de buena !!

físico bien. now that margalef is dry! onwards ... vegna

amazing route with a mono crux. waited to try for years! maybe soft but worth the time.. climbed it in a rain storm with the spanish crew! venga!

8c compared with others..? who knows.. Great route with everything natural! tried it a few times in the sun and once in the shade!
