Enjoying the melt-off

A mostly blue-bird Winter day awaited anyone who came out to the Pipestone Desert to play--the takers were: Tom, Guy and Missy from the 'Zone; Levi, Dean, and Kelsey from the 'Zoo; and Molly, Lyddie, Ladd and myself from the Pit.


The day's Master of Ceremonies:

Trailer Daze

February was a pretty quiet month for me. With the boss out of the country, I had some time to pull out the trailer and hang in the Boulder Batholith. While we've encountered a wetter winter than usual, thankfully the psych has been at great levels. Lots of exploring, new finds, climbing, scoping and fun was had...and we're getting ready to finish off the month right by heading out for this weekend. Should be a great time.

Here's some pics from over the last month, a handful being taken by my good friend Brian Hayes check him out at: http://www.flickr.com/people/fotohayes/
