Evel Days, Wop Chops, and the NoBo's

Dustin, Shannon, and her brother Josh were in town to partake in motorcycle mayhem and mouthwatering munchables--during their brief visit, we managed to sneak out of Butte to sample some fine Northern Bourbon pebble pulling.

Great mid-week day for getting out, with temps still comfortable upon on the Divide...

A couple from the Northern Bourbons

 I got out Friday and Saturday to the Northern Bourbons...Rough guide in hand to double check facts, and continue progress...we're looking at around 140 problems for the guide...that's just for the N Bourbons between the entrance road and the ridge...had to draw the line somewhere to get this rig ready in time for the festival, including those additional problems would bring the total count up to 200+ without difficulty...always more to do...


 A couple shots from the Lateral Dyno Boulder...Brady styled both problems, with an impressive send of the Lateral  Dyno






Cheers!
Tom

Independence Bourbon

A day before the 4th o' July had some cooler, but stable temps and mostly sunny skies. Brady, Britton and Carrie made the trek over from Livingston, with Tom catching up with us solo on a mapping trip of the Northern Bourbons. Guy and Endsley showed up later to climb, as well.
