new blog on dpm

Check out my new blog on DPM of my most recent trip to red rocks with some cool pictures from the trip taken by alex. HERE!

i am heading to the Outdoor retail show this weekend to meet with a bunch of companies as well as compete in the rope nationals. I am definitely in much better bouldering shape than i am rope climbing however, i am still excited to give the comp a shot and hopefully do decently well.

Besides that, school has started again for my last semester at CU before heading over seas for a while. My classes are decent and i only have school tues and thurs which is a plus and will let me travel for climbing on the weekends much more!

I am heading up to Boulder Canyon today in hopes of getting on the roof project. I did the stand start a few years ago and it seems as if the sit start will end up weighing in around the 14/15 area. it will be nice to give a first day of effort on it today from the bottom.

boulder

i am now back to boulder. the 4 week trip was amazing! after arkansas i headed to red rocks to check out the first ascent potential. i soon found that the potential there was endless! people tend to go to red rocks for the sport climbing however i could easily see this area becoming quite popular in the future! as for my trip i did a bunch of exploring and climbed a few lines that will only be the begining of the climbing in red rocks! i found an amazing project and cant wait to get back again soon! check out one of the fa's i did inred rocks as well as my 2nd ascent of lost in the hood atDPM
