Athena Visits - JTree

Athena visited me in LA and we took some time to go climbing in J-Tree... super fun and lots of nice flowers.

Claret Cup Cactus (Echinocereus Triglochididiatus) Maybe?

Blooming yucca of some sort

Close up of the above... super neat little tight clusters.

Yucca! I think anyway.

Top of sphincter quits in real hidden valley. 

Athena eyeing her next climb. Same area.

I like that the flowers almost look like water colors

YUCCA!

Athena led wangerbanger... because she leads 11c like a b.a. Nice view from the top after cleaning the anchors.

Red Rocks Weekend

Went on a short weekend trip to Red Rocks near Vegas. Drove up early Saturday to miss traffic, an even managed to get a camp site in Red Rock Canyon Campground... super supprizing on such a busy weekend and showing up at noon on Saturday. 

Anyway... took just a couple pics.

Walked sort of far back in the Kraft Boulders to check out Pork Chop... super super fun V3-.  View back looking at Vegas which you can just see in the distance.

Friend trying Angle Dyno... going up with right hand instead of the left had with a crimp way it seems like everyone does.

dyno dyno dyno.

Looking back up the canyon on the hike out.
