Boulder, CO / by Eric Dacus

Spent the weekend in Boulder to climb with Sam (and Mark & Katie for one morning). Good to get out and climb a lot and to hang out with a good friend. 

Chalk before the crux

Started in Eldorado Canyon on Friday: The Rincon Wall has some really interesting routes, bring the small gear!

Summit

After Eldo, we simul-climbed the First Flatiron. Spectacular views.

Classic view from Lumpy Ridge

Highly recommend the Handbook on the Bookend at Lumpy Ridge. 

I had wanted to get in a ski tour/ski mountaineering route in as well, but we didn’t make it the rental shop in time (my fault…). So we went back for another day in Eldo instead, which was also fun, and I can’t complain. 

Visor or no?
