This week was some what eventful. I am making headway on the guide book. I have been in touch with a publisher and they seem to be interested. So, I hope this will go somewhere. I went to another sport area close to home today. Really nice joint. Tufas and stalactites, super cool. I also built a climbing wall in our storage closet in our condo. Small but pumpy. The wall will be great for days I can not get outside or to the gym.

This weekend the fam' is heading to the Nagano Prefecture for some snowboarding. We are staying at a ski in/out resort in Hukkabu, which is where the Olympics where held. Hukkabu is being dumped on right now. Steep and deep!!!!!

Star and I have been talking about a few things and trips is one of them. In the next 1.5 years we are looking into going to Australia, New Zealand (south island), Mongolia, S. Korea, and Exploring Japan more in depth. I am pumped about all of these ideas/trips but most so about Mongolia. I am turing 30 next year and we think it so to have a big excursion. So I looked into Chad and Morocco. Both are in the future but not near future. For now the Ulan Bator area of Mongolia looks tops. Clean rock too many untouched stone. The perfect ingredients for a fantastic trip. For more reading on this check out Black Diamond's recent trip there.

Anyway. This week looks like developing more at the Towers area and bouldering at the gym. Star is on call so I will not be able to get outside this week. Next Tuesday I will be heading out with Jack to check out some new large and STEEP!!!! boulders that he found and can not stop talking about. I am stoked to say to the least.

Enjoy the pictures.


Go Climb Something!!!!
