Biking The North Shore BC.

Came down into this little valley and temps dropped crazily, very suddenly.

That rice terrace shot is awesome!

Yellowstone in winter is a highly recommended trip. We've done it 4 times and its always fantastic!

Sorry Sohcrates, I'm giving you another picture of my backside :)

On Tuesday I did my first ice lead on a WI3 route. My partner snapped this photo of me later on the same wall, on toprope.

Man, I need to get a better camera. Biking and Hiking mostly, with a bit of scuba thrown in since, hey, this is Colorado!!
I would post some summit pictures of some the 14ers, but I seem to always stand stupidly when someone takes a picture of me, and my shirt always makes me look ridiculous from the way it sits. *sigh*

Sohcrates, I need you to follow me around and document my life.  I feel like it would make my life seem much more vital and amazing.

Okay, I give in.  Here's a shot from last shelter before summit on Fuji.  It's a nice shot, so you can tell my climbing partner took it.

In the Jura mountains in Switzerland, looking south towards Lac Leman (Lake Geneva).  The white mass above the cloud line just left of center is Mont Blanc, on the French-Italian border.  A nice bike ride from Lausanne, and a short hike to the summit.

Your life is just that, you just need to remind yourself more often :)
