"If you aren't cute you may as well be clever" aka Gold Bar in November

Nothing beats a 40 degree day with some sun on high quality granite, except maybe sending something in those exact same conditions. A great day of climbing , although sendless on my end. I went 0-fer on "Danny Devito"(telling yourself you need the friction only works on frictionless days...get stronger), "Water"(unprogressing is the theme for aqua. should I ever actually remember my sequence I might climb this problem... at this point it's mental), "Obesity"(good progress making it all the way to what will likely be the cruxy throw). Just being out in November without rain is pretty amazing but consider the company an this was a 5 star day. I'll chalk this one up to good training for my first ever comp in 2 weeks. More later in the week on that soon to be hot mess of old man style in the Master division...


Ben doing Obesity again because there was either a chance he forgot the moves or a chance that he thought that we forgot that we had seen him climb it before

If you see this guy ask him about his brushes. He's sponsored advocated pro bono-ly by Black Diamond Brushes


 Chris doing "Water"... Took the new Olympus Pen out for a test drive and was goofing with the tilt shift in camera special defect

Ben topping up on h2O with the faux tilt shift after the fact (side note Ben is kind of a dick for going 2 for 3 today)


The MCPOD Mascot relaxing. This guy is not sponsored yet but is looking.

 Ben using excellent spotting form as Tony capatilizes on his thin legs on "Obesity"
