The Rock!! Finger points to the Roof in the climb.
The climbing area is in Clear Creek, Colorado about 15 min from our house. The rock is called "Crystal Tower".




The warm up to the climb, with the Roof called "Skipping Stones" 5.11c.

Getting across the Creek "Tyrolian Traverse" to the climb, is almost as strenuous as the climb.

Harb Carvers with Jay Peterson at Mt Hood 05

Some great footage where I'm demonstrating different techniques and movements you can make on Carvers at Mt Hood, with Jay Peterson following. Jay is one of our top PMTS coaches. This is one of the best roads for Carving in the US. It's in Government Camp, OR. A long run with perfect a pitch, you have to have some experience controlling speed on Carvers, as it gets fast in places. The road has little traffic and good pavement.

Still lots of climbing left this fall.

This is the Empire,Colorado wall called,"Goat Rock".

Harrison gets a Colorado climbing fix in August

He's hooked, but back at school at the University of New Hampshire now.

Where do I use that Dropped Knee Egyption?

Geting back in Shape

Working a hard 5.11 after a six week lay-off. Not much to hold on to here.

New ride

The motor is not yet tuned to the max, but the ride already tells me it will be great when the horse power is back.

Good luck to Erik

Here is Erik Schlopy with us at the Harb Skier alignment Center. We are working on his boot set up. He is a Bronz medalist at the world championships and new father this summer and back for another World cup season.

July rehab

Topping out on one of the City of Rocks climbs.

Great climbing and camping at City of Rocks, Idaho.

July was a slow month, with rehab for my knee. Lots of range of motion stretching and little actually training. Not a fun combination.

I did get in as much climbing and biking before my surgery as possible. Here are photos from City of Rocks which is in Idaho, three hours west of Slat Lake city.

Little boy cat

Sleepy Kits

Happy kitties!

The new Pixiebob Kittens are a big hit.
