Sorry all, I've not been near internets for a bit. I'm currently in Curry Village and have a site in Camp 4. KIX, thanks heaps for the beta, much appreciated. ET, got your link on FB, but I'm told that there's a store in Mammoth Lakes that's closer than Bishop? I want to go to Toulumne anyway, so I may just do that. GPS says it's only about 100 miles.

Hey Porch, I'll PM you the links to my blog, flickr account and twitter feed. Thanks for your interest!

I did West Crack on Daff Dome up in Tuolomne yesterday. 500 odd feet of slab and crack in tight down-turned bouldering shoes was fucking agony. Amazing place though.

Fuck me, Norcal is gorgeous. I woke up this morning to find I had a flat tire, and changing it meant that the camp host found me before I could ghost out. $28 for a campsite? Fuck that noise. Anyway, I'm almost in Sacramento.

KIX, I'm sending a PM now.

responses sitting in my outbox all afternoon.

KIX gettin all 'are you even doing your jobs' on their asses...

Very good beta. Also las palmas, the black sheep, schatt's, and the great basin bakery are all legit. Jerky shop on the north end of town is rad too. How long you gonna be there?

[dm]

In Bishop? About a month or so. Rolling with a posse of 2 Spaniards and a Japanese guy.

[Ikefromla]

I'll be up within that timeline for sure. You guys should take the 6 hour drive to Black Mt, stay for a few days to a week, and get an extended tour. Offer open since I'll be there every weekend besides Thanksgiving and the ones I spend in Bishop anyway.

[dm]

Nice one. I'll send you a PM, or probably see you in Bishop. Plans to climb a route today fell through, so I'm leaving the valley now.

[dm]

Holy shit balls, the Buttermilks are AMAZING. Goddamn circus yesterday though, and a hot circus at that.

Wait until you see an area that isn't choss!

My tips are utterly shredded. Luckily it snowed quite a bit last night, so rest days ahoy.

Also, I met Pander. He is cool IRL.

Joe's Valley? Depends on the weather. Supposedly it was great this past weekend.
