Woods Wandering

Went out to the Underhill with the crew and took down Hockety Pockety. It's a beautiful climb that requires a variety of techniques and requires decent precision and timing. We ended up needing a ladder to brush off the top, as it was quite mossy. Give your kudos to your spotters and developers, for without their efforts, the ascent more than likely would not happen. Afterwards, Bobby, Evan and I went out and wandered around the forest looking for roofs. Nothing very notable, but it is a very pretty hike. We then finished the day off at the draw with some laps on She Lives, quite possibly the best V6 in the area. 


I've been on a lookout for some long roof lines, other than some of the more notable ones (End to End, I'm looking at you). Bobby has found some that look quite fresh, and I would like to get out there to dig it out a bit, build out a landing, and start making it a reality. 
Holds. 

Unfortunately low, but the landing can be dug out.

Salton Sea in the Fernow Draw
Would be nice to climb it out from the left all the way out to the right on the crack exit. I estimate at minimum 60 feet of roof climbing. The Fernow Draw is quite possibly my favorite place to walk around and take in the sights. 

Bobby examining a slight possibility, but it is a dud. We spotted a potential compression line, but probably not worth the approach. 

Limestone everywhere. 


Will probably be out at the draw tonight and tomorrow. More training. It's hot.

I'm still been working on Lolita  at Priest Draw. I've now progressed to the point where the boulder can be segmented into 3 parts, ...
