gone Location: Hueco Tanks State Park - IMG 2011
Ali takes a practice run Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Because Leslie's balls are bigger than his. - IMG 2012
Practice Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Or perhaps he's just smarter. - IMG 2013
Bryan supervises Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Reassuring Ali he won't die despite Leslie's broken and mutilated body on the rocks below. - IMG 2014
Here he goes Location: Hueco Tanks State Park I was joking about the broken and mutilated body, of course. - IMG 2015
Or not Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Back up, briefly. George talks him through it. - IMG 2016
And down again Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Disappearing over the edge of the cliff (what fun!). - IMG 2017
Going Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Because we just can't have too many pictures of this, can we? (this one's for Ali's mom) - IMG 2018
Water product for lunch Location: Hueco Tanks State Park The nastiest coldcuts and cheese ever, but pressed meat seemed like such a good idea at HEB. It would have been better had it never happened. (pass the gorp, for the love of god) - IMG 2019
Group photo Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Heading to the gymnasium for the afternoon. - IMG 2020
Getting there Location: Hueco Tanks State Park We managed to find the most difficult possible way to get to this bouldering place. Hong tackles it with aplomb. - IMG 2021
Navigating the crack Location: Hueco Tanks State Park We inch our way into the gymnasium. - IMG 2022
Jeff gets excited Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Somebody hold him back. The crash pad is still in the crack with Chris (not for long, as Bryan decides it's a good idea to throw it at George while George is holding Bryan's camera. Which crashes to the ground and breaks. But is ultimately fixed.) - IMG 2023
Doug in the crack Location: Hueco Tanks State Park One by one, they file through. - IMG 2024
Still in the crack Location: Hueco Tanks State Park There was a handy little rock. - IMG 2025
Chris in the crack Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Tossing George's backpack. - IMG 2026
Leslie, with that same grin Location: Hueco Tanks State Park This is one for the parents. - IMG 2027
Hong, looking sexy Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Hong tackles some bouldering problems. - IMG 2028
Hong, loving the jugs Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Hong heel-hooks a gigantic hueco. - IMG 2029
No one gets out of here alive Location: Hueco Tanks State Park At least, so the smarmy bastards who named the problem decided. Hong tackles the V2 roof. - IMG 2030
Jeff and Ali head for home Location: Hueco Tanks State Park A long day ends, and enough time is budgeted to go to town for ice. - IMG 2031
Did I say "home?" I meant "camp." Location: Hueco Tanks State Park But they're heading there, regardless. - IMG 2032
Did I say "ice?" I meant "candy." Location: Hueco Tanks State Park A stop at Walgreens for sunscreen resulted in George, Bryan, Leslie and Ali fanning out and independently filling their arms with crap (pringles! coke! snickers! cookies!). We reunited at the cashier looking slightly shamefaced. Then, as though we'd been in the desert for months (rather than less than 24 hours), we tore into the food before we were out of the store. - IMG 2033
What's another name for pirates' treasure? Location: Hueco Tanks State Park I think it's "booty." We also hit Hollywood video for DVDs (and more candy), and finally the convenience store for ice (and, thanks to Ali, a bag of Doritos). - IMG 2034
Hong, all tuckered out Location: Hueco Tanks State Park - IMG 2035
Ali, all tuckered out Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Jeff set up this hammock. It was glorious. - IMG 2036
Jeff, all tuckered out Location: Hueco Tanks State Park And, so kindly, giving up his hammock. - IMG 2037
Leslie and Doug, all tuckered out Location: Hueco Tanks State Park and footsore. - IMG 2038
Decisive action Location: Hueco Tanks State Park Leslie and Bryan decide to be proactive about that whole footsore business. As usual, Jeff photographs. - IMG 2039
y mas Location: Hueco Tanks State Park There are really only three great things in the world. Foot rubs are not necessarily one of them. But they're damn good.
