Yellow Spur 2.0 and other news

Did an evening summit with two teams of 2 last night of The Yellow Spur.  Helen teamed up with her friend Lisa from Denver to re-send the route in better style than the previous time the two of them went up. Josh and I acted as a kind of roaming video crew scrambling ahead of them to get good shots of the best portions of the climb.  Should be piecing together a good 2-3 minute video of it in the next day or two.

I definitely went up the route in better style this time.  Still pulled on some gear during the 5th pitch where it's just tiny crimps and bad feet.  I still kinda suck on lead.

In other news...  I've found the wonders of the Craigslist Activity Partner section.  I've found a guy I'm going to climb with this Saturday in boulder canyon who looks to be almost exactly at my climbing level, along with a group to play Ultimate with and a group to play some D&D with this weekend.  Makes me kinda wish I hadn't sold all those books.

In the meantime, today is house cleaning day since Josh is showcasing his El Cap movie tonight.  I'll try to get a link to it posted as soon as I can.
