February 25:

Shot summer material for eyewear company WileyX. More at Josh’s Blog. A quick summary:

Feb 15 – Los Angeles. Found a snowboard. Hit the road with Josh Fowler, Cooper Roberts and my sis Christine, en route to the Mojave Desert. Camped in the desert.

My God. It’s full of stars.

Feb 16 – Kelso Dunes, Mojave Desert. Sandboarding. Shot some trail running at the Cinder Cones. Cool pocketed rock formations, for the most part unclimbable, but great for throwing stones at. We did find a living gourd though. On to Vegas.

Feb 17,18 – We are welcomed to the Fabulous Las Vegas Nevada by the sound of a beating taking place in the room below ours at a Motel 6. The city has grown at least 10 blocks since the last time I was there. Nice to escape Randall Flagg & co. (The Stand – read it.) and finally make it into Red Rocks NCA. I had forgotten how brilliant the climbing is here and how solid the sandstone is back East. You feel me? Dawn to dusk bouldering, climbing, forced marches..

(l-r) Hillary, Christine and Christina at Red Rocks. Perfect hair AND they can pull down.
Feb 19 – Some morning climbing, back to LA in the PM when the rain hits. Wish I could take RR back home.

Feb 20 – Shopping for trinkets and seriously overpriced kids t-shirts in Santa Monica. The best veggie burger ever at a place that shall remain nameless (because I forgot it), and we are off to Atlanta.

Scenes from Santa Monica:
