Some pics from the Chicken Cave

Here are a few pics courtesy of my good friends Shane and Alon from climbing in the Chicken Cave.

First some pics lapping the really fun 'White Tiger' 7b+/5.12c/26

Then some pics of me sending the amazing, burly 'Grevious Bodily Harm' 7c/5.12d/27

L'Echo Des Montagne

So the weather has been getting much better around here. The rain is gone, blue skies abound and climbing is the name of the game every day. It's warm, like 30+ degrees celcius every day, but its great being outside right now! Climbing, swimming in the river, cycling around: life is great at this time of year!
This week has been great. I sent a 5.12a, 5.12c and a 5.12d in 2 days climbing and then did an amazinly fun 5 pitch 5.8 with my good buddy Brian. So much fun!
Check out the pics below for a taste of what life is like here when the weather is good ;-)

Petzl Roc Trip 2011 - Getu Valley

Psyched!!!

Some more pics...

So I'm a little sore today but I'm about to head to the training wall anyway. Would prefer to be at the crag but the Spring rains are here so it's on and off rain for a while and today happens to be one of those rainy days so it's bouldering, hangboard, yoga and massages today instead :)
We built a wicked hangboard in our apartment and I have written up some hangboard programs for everyone so we are all psyched :)

Here are a few more random pics from recent times... enjoy :)
