It's been raining here for the last three days. Kind of a bummer
since I didn't go to the Gramps in fear of rain, but not so bad
actually. A number of big caves offer dry rock and good weather starts
tomorrow and stays until I leave.
Yesterday I met up with Dave to check out this huge cave, Sunnyside.
Sunnyside is home to 3 lines that are each quite hard. Dave and I

Bräcke is just one of the many small areas located in the middle of
Gothenburg. Awhile back I went there with Peter and Per-Ola and while I
sent a project it was Peter scraping up Envy that made my day. There is
something extremely gratifying when a problem gets sent with bleeding

Second time outside in 4 months and a "day trip" (we actually
drove down the night before) to Dover seemed appropriate. Joining up
with Jon and Chalk newbie Alex we headed for a characterful sounding
grade V called X Files.
Jon can just be seen right of the top of the grass slope, heading
toward the obvious hole ...
I'm leaving first thing in the morning with a motivated crew of Boulder
climbers and headed up North into the Sawtooth Mountain Range of Idaho.
The plan is meet up with the local Idaho crew first thing in the
morning, sail across Redfish Lake, establish camp, and spend the next 6

granite boulders. "Valley of the Giants" it is called. We
will see. Since I probably won' ...
