Over the last 4 or 5 days in the Pit, we have managed to meet up with some awesome guys psyched on climbing. It has been a blast crushing boulders by day and hanging out around the campfire by night.
The Buttermilks have lived up to their reputation of being sharp and tall...my type of bouldering. The Happy boulders, on the other hand, have proven to be quite powerful and gymnastic...far from mine or Cam's strengths but fun none the less.
Due to technical difficulties (read: forgotten memory card) we have limited documentation of the last few days, but here are a few pics I did manage to snap.
As you can see from the first photo of Tommy sending, the allure of Bishop is not just its bouldering. This place is flat out beautiful. The east side of the Sierra Nevadas form the backdrop of this small high desert town. With world-class winter bouldering, sunny weather sport climbing, and some of the best scenery in the US, it is no wonder why so many climbers winter in Bishop.
man.. bishop looks insanely awesome.
