No real write-up for this one. Just some pictures from a beautiful weekend climbing in the beautiful Swell. Climbed at Trojan Wall the first day and Dylan Wall the second. Highlights include:
* Questing up an unknown wide pitch at Trojan Wall and fighting through sand, broken holds and self-doubt to reach the top.
* Figuring out how to get a stuck-on flat tire off Hunter’s truck (answer: driving without any of the lug nuts on).
* Onsighting Blood on the Tracks, my first of the grade, and probably one of my best climbing performances ever.
* Savoring the vast solitude and magical desert scenery that the Swell provides.
