Strike 3 @ TB Woods (2003)

This was shot by Anne Skidmore in 2003. This boulder has 3 cool problems all side by side. Hardly Easy (v9), Magnet (v9), and Strike 3 (v9). This was first put up by Sonnie Trotter in 2003 right after repeating Hardly Easy.

Welsford 1995

Here's a photo dating back to 1995 (wow! already 15 yrs!). Leading is Mitch Leblanc on the classic "Leviathan" in Welsford, NB. The funny thing about this photo is that it actually shows Mitch "Z-clipping" the second bolt. Belaying is Chris Jones. This inseparable duo sent all the hard lines in Welsford then began putting up testpieces of their own such as Access Denied (5.13a), What's a paradigm (5.12+), Perfect (5.12b), and more.

2011

After a great visit back east we are back at work in Calgary. I'm looking forward to 2011 with the wedding and continuing to discover the rockies.

Shown here is an old photo from 1995(?) in Hampton Marsh, NB climbing on "Hell's a poppin' 5.12c. Very few ascents or visits although that mini crag would have some desperate testpieces.
