The Crew...

Well, I haven't honestly been climbing here very much over the last few days mainly because I'm just feeling exhausted and nearly climbed out. My body aches in odd places and my fingers feel fried so the last three days have been strictly rest time (except for a stupid workout Drew suckered me into). So, just to have something going on on the blog I figured that I might make a post with a picture of the crew that I've been fortunate enough to have all of this time to climb with this summer. So, in no particular order!

Emily:


Kevin: Came from Missouri without climbing for a few months and gets here and still kicks most peoples butts. Also, in the background of that picture is the Diamond which is the gnarly face of Longs Peak.


Robert: Most psyched climber I think that I've met this summer. I think the last count was like 9 consecutive days without a rest.


Jeremy: Climbs hard and makes the most ridiculous faces that I've ever seen from anyone climbing. Look how crazy he can look while even just belaying!


Drew: The one and only Dude Bro, and probably the person that I've climbed the most with this summer. Dude's strong.


Wayne: A super psyched boulderer from Arkansas. Climbs hard to boot.


Gabe: Should I have to say anything more?


Justin: Also known as Mardy for some apparent reason. He used to be a boulderer but thankfully we've converted him to a sport climber and now the dude has blown up. Real strong. I don't know what the eff he is doing in this picture though. haha


Joey: Not a climber so much as our photographer. A crap ton of my pictures come from this super cool Malaysian and she's without a doubt one of my favorite people from the summer!


Tim: Another strong climber from Arkansas. A usual quote from Tim is, "just dyno it."


Lastly, I got suckered in to taking some stupid pictures on the slackline with a monkey from some group.


I think that it was a pretty good feat of balance if I do say so myself!

Anyways, I hope that everyone is doing fine back in KY, and I'm glad to say that mom is back safe and sound so watch her blog for when she starts throwing up some of her like 2000+ pictures she took while in Europe!
