Castle Rock cragging

August 27, 2004

On August 27, buddies Seth and Doxey climbed Castle Rock. The pair climbed The Fault and Catapult on Lower CR, then after lunch tackled the historic Midway. Seth did all the leading except for one pitch - way to go Seth! Afterward, Doxey reported, "We clumb it."

West Ridge of Forbidden

August 23, 2004

Seth, Anna, Jim and Phil climbed the West Ridge of Forbidden - hey, impressive! Everyone had a great time and agreed the famous West Ridge was an awesome climb. Says Phil,

The ridge climb was solid and very fun, with only one crux section that really tested our rock climbing skills. The rest was very low fifth class and the weather was perfect up there, -short sleves, sunshine and a mild breeze to cool the heat.
