Hi everyone, I finally have enough photos to warrant starting a blog. My friends and I have been exploring the south lake tahoe area and finding lots of amazing new boulders. I am really hoping to provide as many photos as possible about the process of looking / cleaning and trying to climb these new lines.

v12ish project |

possible crux move, going to a slopey small sidepull. |

the forbidden project, v13+ - although this wall looks amazing - the holds are fragile and a few broke as we were working the moves. I do think that they have settled in, and feel solid - this does take away from the overall quality - still a very good line though. |
