Bare your soul Location: the Gorge And all else, for that matter. - 104 0482 IMG

its Gorgeous Location: the Gorge This is probably the most beautiful venue I have ever seen. This pic is from NIN's website, and was taken before any fans got there (duh). - 104 0472 IMG
Nice trip Location: I90 east Eastern WA on the way to George was more of the horrorshow scenery, oh my brothers. The 2.5 hrs of driving flew by. - 104 0468 IMG
On the road again... to NIN! Location: I90 east We're off to see NIN at the Gorge in George, WA. Two other interns helped us pay for gas and keep us upright in the mosh pit. - 105 0549 IMG

Desperate for a pump Location: REI Redmond Expelled from Little Si by rain, we stop by our second home and hop on the plastic while we're there. - 105 0541 IMG
Nice scenery Location: Little Si I just can't capture the lush, greenlike nirvana you enter when hiking in the cascades with a camera. Trust me, it's super-noot. - 105 0540 IMG
The Big Easy Location: Little Si This is a nice little 5.9 that could have been nicer if it hadn't been raining on us. It was quite long; after lowering we had only ~4m of our 60m rope left. Whew, as it were. - 105 0534 IMG
Tying in Location: Little Si To start climbing, you really need to know just one knot: the figure 8. Now if I could just remember how to tie it... - 105 0590 IMG

Not Just Climbers Location: the parking lot at Deception Crags It turns out that the tressle is used for all sorts of things, such as horseback riding, biking, hiking, and even riding in old country wagons. More then once a horseback rider asked us, "You actually think that's fun?!?"
