Mike B on a
zig zagging 5.11 crack. This one is found in the Grand Wash and is about a 2
minute approach. Classic.
Steph Davis on a nice 12+ splitter. This crack is also in the Grand Wash and is as good as they get for this size.
Steph crushed the route easily after her knee surgery months ago.

The Capitol Reef visitor center. Be sure to stop in and get some fresh pies!

Mike B making breakfast on a cool morning in the park. For 10 bucks a night it's quiet and you are right in the middle of everything in the park. Clean bathrooms and friendly folks and hundreds of fruit trees.

Mike B on his overhanging 35meter hand crack. It's awesome! Some easy face/crack climbing at the beginning leads to a
beautiful 20 foot overhung
handcrack out the dihedral. It is just a minute from the road (Grand Wash).
I am really glad that you have visited my blog.
Thanks and I hope to see and hear from you soon.
