Done in N.C..

I am back from North Carolina.  We are done building this…

No this is not some kind of modern art.  It is a free-standing boulder for a climbing gym in North Carolina.

Just slap some holds on there and climb it!

It wasn’t all work. I was lucky to fly out early and climb in Red River Gorge, Kentucky and Looking Glass, North Carolina with Travis.  Didn’t take many pics because there was only two of us.  It is a little difficult to give a good belay and take good pictures simultaneously. Here are a few pics that really do not tell the story of how awesome these two climbing areas are.

Travis on Banshee.  Notice the water streaks in the upper left corner. One of the cool things about Red River is there is so much steep climbing that you can climb even in the pouring rain.  Like this day.

Can you say no hands rest! Travis hanging out in a very large hueco.

It was  cool to explore the east a bit but, I am really psyched to be back in Utah to ski…
