Saddle Boulder

Summer climbing conditions are not nearly as heinous here in California as they are back in Connecticut, although they are still far from ideal. Despite the sweltering temps I headed up to Donner Summit with my friends, Alex and Kailin. We ended up having a really fun day and I managed to drag myself up one of the area classics , Midnight Train. This is surely one of my favorite problems for the grade! Here is a little video of it:

Weekly Sketch

Planning to post a weekly drawing or sketch of some sort. We'll see if it happens??? I have been working on a lot of different projects lately. All involve some pretty wild subject matter, ranging from skateboarding dogs to Venezuelan Bush Planes . For this week here is one of the many new pieces in my sketch book.
