Well yesterday was my friend Drew's birthday so since we were both off of work early we decided to head in to Boulder and bum around for a bit. While there we were lucky enough to stop at REI - read sarcasm into that - I was able to make it away spending only $120. I did get some good finds though; I found a new harness and a really nice Mountain Hardware vest, that isn't really necessary for anything except to appease my vanity. I suck.
After boulder we headed up to Oskar Blues in Lyons to eat dinner and have a few beers with a few friends and listen to a really cool band, which coincidentally enough is playing tonight at the Rock Inn where I am about to head out to. After Oskar's we went and camped at Big Elk Meadows to do some bouldering in the morning and afternoon.
Bouldering sucked. I sent a V1. Kind of depressing for me. However, I did come close on a number of other problems one of which was a V4 and the other a V5 but I just couldn't work out the beta. I just can't get to feeling too strong here lately. It kind of sucks.
Sunday, I'm supposed to head to a crag called the Ironclads with my buddy Kevin to do some sport climbing. I'm pretty excited and there is a huge selection of routes so it will be great to warm up on something that isn't a 5.11. haha. I'd really like to get some 10's onsight tomorrow if possible too so we'll have to see what happens!
I hope things are going well Mom and I'm checking your blog as often as possible. Scott, you're a bum and get your ass out here! I hope everyone else is doing well!
