rain soaked circuits, gems, and photogs.

Looking to overcome my soft-serve girl strength, I decided some training was in order. Lacking any indoor climbing facilities (that I know of) I decided that a climb-till-you-puke-circuit was a good idea. Rain in the forecast had me gambling that Whiskey would be dry. It wasn't, but I still managed to climb a little anyhow. ...Turns out, projecting old warm ups is not so fun, but not pulling hard also allowed me to "rediscover" some rad, often overlooked, moderates.

On the way back the Butte, I stopped to oogle a boulder I'd stumbled upon earlier. Due to some old school advertisement i've dubbed it eh Corporate Graffiti boulder. Looks like it should give up some excellent lines.


Intersection of Rader Creek and "Ranger Ridge."


The Corporate Graffiti boulder. ...gunna be a great one.


Another angle. big slopey rails.


Hold out from the railroad days.


Last light on the East ridge. There's rock in them there hills.
