Weekend Warriorship

I took it to the limit this past weekend & pulled off the Trifecta, which went like this:
Saturday: While Jordi and her aunt Amy went cross country skiing around Timberline & Government camp, uncle Andy and I spent the day skiing at Meadows. The tele turns were feeling groovy!

Sunday: The infamous "Bear Springs Trap" x-country MTB race. I have done this race many times over the years, and it is never easy. I managed 9th place in the Cat. 1 35-44 year old category, with a time of 2 hr. 56 minutes. I'll take it.

Monday: After Sunday's race I drove to Smith and spent all day Monday climbing with my buddy Aaron Webb. After a couple easy pitches, I sent my project, "Liquid Jade," (5.12b), and then we climbed a sweet 5.12a further up on the Shipwreck wall (a full 35 meter pitch--great fun!), and capped off the day with "Crossfire," 5.12a on the Karate Wall. Damn, what a climb! What a wall!

The only thing missing from this weekend are photos! I was too busy having the time of my life!
