    attached is the squeeze on helldorado.... think u can make it Silas? lol


    heres the ledge drop kick
    right past this pic on the right is a good 3 foot ledge. not alot of wiggle room and turning up hill left with a cliff behind ur right rear tire. i kind feel tho if i pulled line and used it to help, itd get up it:)

    :woot: when are you heading out and where are you staying? For that matter, where is everyone who is staying in a hotel staying? I want to try to get in to wherever you all are so that we can have mini fiestas in the hotel parking lot on the nights when we don't hang out at BFE.

    I had all my trad gear with me last year, but just couldn't find the time to go climb anything. My buddy in Grand Junction was ready to go at a moments notice if I called him.

    I really wanted to go climb Ancient Art on Fisher Towers (5.10), but it was just too dang hot.

    For those that aren't aware, Ancient Art is the climb seen on the Citi Bank commercial: (Summit Photo but not me)

    We're staying in the Moab Valley Inn (our favorite). We check in the 29th so we'll probably leave that morning. We'd be leaving from the Springs, since my dads truck is down there but I think we're going to go through Denver. Better check quick though because I think we got one of the last rooms.

    Are the waivers we have to sign going to be there when we get there? Also the raffle thing...$20 for a ticket right? Is the price any different if we aren't camping? And can we buy those when we get there?

    My poor truck has to stay at home. I wish we had a double car hauler trailer lol. No point in driving two vehicles all the way out there.
