Walk into the woods.

Keep walking. Walk off tracks. Do not plan where you are going. Take whatever directions appeal in the moment. Keep walking. When, without realizing you are lost, its then your adventure begins.

The Electric Grandmother.

Went back out to West Kelly with the intentions of finishing a recent project. After some touch up cleaning in the upper section I was psyched to try and climb it. I had been thinking positive about the moves for almost three days and I think, on some level, I knew I was going to do it.

The climb moves out a steep bulge to some really small holds (my anti-style), after a few bumps through some more razor edges you have to top out through some slopers and delicate slab moves. Thankfully I had a few extra pads and Doug was willing to give out some ground support. (I really didnt want to fall onto 3 huge logs)


Here is some video from the first ascent of The Electric Grandmother.


Thanks Casey for your
excellent video work...
